Pam Bartlett believes strongly in her sheep program

Pamela Bartlett grew up on a mixed farm, which included purebred Charolais cattle and grain.

Bartlett joined the local 4-H club at the age of six and remained a member until she was 18 years old and will receive her 20-year leader pin in 2023. The 4-H movement has always been a passion for her family.

For a few years, while being a 4-H member, Bartlett took a sheep project, not realizing how much this would impact her adult life.

Bartlett is the treasurer for the Saskatchewan Sheep Breeders Association and the sheep leader of her club. She works full-time as the chief administrative officer for the RM of Enniskillen, while her husband Daniel works for Centurion Canada Infrastructure and is a firefighter for Carnduff’s fire department.

They moved to their family farm in 2011 with their son Eli. In 2013, they had their daughter Abigail.

Initially, the young farm family bought a small herd of black angus cows. This proved not to be for them due to some medical issues, so the search began for something manageable for their family, and it was decided to be sheep.
