Enid Bull

SK Administration/Parts Coordinator
Joined DLS April 2021

Enid was born and raised in Regina, Saskatchewan. She began her working career as a Librarian and worked in the newsroom for the Regina Leader Post Newspaper, where she met her husband Vaugh. At the time, Vaugh had just taken over the family dairy farm as the 3rd generation farmer. In 1991 with the birth of their 4th daughter, Enid and Vaugh decided to save the expense of daycare and a hired hand by bringing Enid home to work full time on the farm and watch the children. Enid recalls this time as an excellent opportunity to be a stay-at-home mom and teach their girls what they call today a great work ethic.

They had a 50 cow Surge tie stall barn with a registered, closed herd that they were very proud of, as well as a small grain operation that they were working on expanding. In 2007 they decided it was either time to upgrade the dairy or sell the cows and quota, and with none of their girls interested, they decided to sell.

On January 1, 2009, the cows were gone, and Dairyland Agro approached Enid to fill in for the Office Manager while the Office Manager went on maternity leave. After the maternity leave Enid continued to work with the Office Manager in a job share role for one year before they decided to stay home permanently. Enid worked there until DLS bought the dairy division of Dairyland Agri in 2021. Enid has been enjoying the challenges of working for a new company and interacting with all her new co-workers. In reflection on the transition and her time with DLS for almost a year and a half now, Enid told us that:

“The Saskatchewan dairy industry was ready for a change, and I believe that DLS and General Manager Herman Guenter was exactly what was needed to revitalize things and bring in fresh ideas.”

Enid’s time away from the office is spent with her kids, grandkids (5 grandsons & 1 grandaughter), and cheering for the Riders – mind you, she says that has been tough this year!
