Sam White
Sam grew up on Bald Blair and lives in his childhood home. He is the third generation of Whites to run Bald Blair following on from Colonel HF White, his Dad, Richard White and uncle Graham White. Sam loves living and working at Bald Blair and is always fired up to deal with the next challenge of the day, be it water pumps, pasture renovation, bull fertility testing or kayaking on the lagoon with his two boys.
Sam is the owner manager of Bald Blair Pastoral Co and overseas the overall farm performance, profitability and productivity. Sam has a Bachelor of Financial Administration and Graduate Diploma in Agricultural Economics from the University of New England. He continually updates his skills, be it low stress stock handling, chemical user certificate or AI and ET training or using drones.
Kirsty White
Kirsty grew up on a property called “Tullimba” at Kingstown on the Northern Tablelands of NSW and moved to Bald Blair when she married Sam in 2005. Two boys later, she is very busy wrangling the school bus run, poddy calves, farm office and farm work. Kirsty has a Bachelor of Arts in Office Management from the University of Canberra and was given some great advice when she married Sam..”Do every farm course you can!” She has since done courses in preg testing, low stress stockhandling, feeder steer school, prograze, natural horsemanship, working dog training, social media and movie making to name a few. Kirsty is the “Jill of all trades” and is on call to get what ever needs doing done!
Tom Cleaver
We welcomed Tom, Alice, Mackenna and Fletcher to the Bald Blair Angus team in November 2020. Tom grew up in the Taree area and attended the University of New England. He has worked on properties East of Armidale and Guyra, before settling at Bald Blair. Nothing matches Tom’s enthusiasm! He has a great team of dogs and is a tremendous asset to our team. Tom and Alice are actively involved in the Guyra Rugby League, Pre-school and community.
