The people in your neighbourhood - Egg entrepreneur Sarah McClelland

Sarah McClelland
Toni Lucas

The entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well in the Pincher Creek area. 9 year old Sarah McClelland is a grade 3 student at St. Michael's School in Pincher and lives with her family on a farm near Beaver Mines. Her personal business is raising several varieties of fowl and selling their eggs. "I started my business when I was like, 6, maybe 7," she explained.  At home she has to pay for half of the cost of the feed. She sells the eggs for $3.00 / dozen, collects approximately a dozen a day, and has learned a lot about her fowl, their care, and habits in the process. She currently is keeping approximately 20 chickens, a few ducks, and geese.
