Simpson Farm

Simpson Farm, Leicester longwool sheep, Burgettstown, PA, in southwestern Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh. Simpson Farm is run by Mackenzie Simpson, who has been raising these gentle, wool-producing sheep for more than a decade and holds memberships in national and regional breed associations.

The flock lives on pasture-rotation systems with daily handling and early socialization to encourage calm temperaments. Health screenings include regular parasite testing, detailed pedigree tracking, and vaccination schedules adapted to seasonal needs.

A focus on soil health and natural wool grading helps maintain fiber quality suited for handspinning and weaving. Stock are selected for consistent fleece length and sturdy frames, reflecting attention to breed-standard conformation. The farm’s simple barn provides clean bedding, regular hoof trimming, and routine veterinary checks. Each lamb enjoys time among siblings and daily exposure to family life, pairing traditional farm values with responsible breeding practices.
