This lovely rural scene is identified as York County, Pennsylvania.
York County, in south-central Pennsylvania remains a significant agricultural center.
I identified this postcard as a generic rural scene to which a printer added a local place name.
Indeed, the title in red is printed over the name of the publisher, Curt Teich of Chicago.
Curt Teich often reprinted older postcard images, so this image may be older than the date of the printing.
Nevertheless, I initiated an Internet search about the history of sheep in York County, Pennsylvania and was surprised at the amount of data that is available on this topic.
Sheep have a long history in the county, although the appearance of sheep farms (or alpaca farms) is a more recent phenomenon.
When York County was first settled, circa 1730-1750, all agricultural enterprises were diversified – each farm harvested both grains and vegetables, and animal products from a chicken or a cow -as they might be acquired for the farmstead.
It sometimes took a generation (or longer) to clear the timber from the family farm; advertisements from the 19th century still list farms for sale which indicate acres of cleared land and of uncleared land.
Meadows were a later development in York County, unlike the western Pennsylvania counties where cleared hillsides were devoted to grazing animals much earlier after settlement.
As a rich agricultural area, and a formerly progressive state, the Commonwealth holds enormous quantities of data related to the history of farming.

The linen postcard, in very good condition, was not mailed.
It is printed in the “linen-style” and was produced circa 1940.
