The Totnes Wheat Pool Committee was founded in 1925 by farmers in the Totnes, Saskatchewan area. Its initial chairman was J.H. Williams and Secretary was D.A. Williams. The Committee was made up of all farmer-members of the wheat pool, which was initially called the Saskatchewan Co-operative Wheat Producers until it was renamed the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool in 1953, in the area.
The Committee's purpose was: to promote the Pool to other farmers; to supervise local pool operations after the acquisition of the Saskatchewan Co-operative Elevator in Totnes in 1926; to discuss issues relevant to farmers; and to receive and disseminate communication from the delegates and directors of the Wheat Pool. The Wheat Pool itself was involved in advocacy, joint marketing (until 1931), and running local elevators. The Totnes Committee participated in these activities and was particularly involved in local elevator affairs until the sale of the elevator on July 31, 1972.
The Committee was located in District 11, Sub-District 1. The last confirmed date of Totnes Wheat Pool Committee activities is April, 1984, although the Committee may be active past that date.
