“One on the things in this
economic system that bothers me
is that everybody’s playing with
your money,” Meyer states. With
his methods, most of the sales are
“over the counter.” Money is
received directly without the four
to six-week holding period used by
the large dairy plants. Meyer
credits much of his success to their
location along Interstate 78, on the
edge of Bethel, and also next to a
trailer park. "We have never had a
dissatisfied customer,” he adds.
With seven sons and three
daughters’ Meyer also adds, “I
wanted to teach my boys the work

Meyer also does his own ad
vertising with brochures, road
signs and ad campaigns. "If dairy
farmers would handle their
products properly and advertising
right, there wouldn’t be a surplus,"
he maintains. Meyer added that if
a farmer wants to direct market
milk, he must improve the quality.
He also advocates storing and
serving milk in glass containers
rather than anything else. They
also like to keep their milk right at
32 degrees to keep the ice cold taste
they have grown to love.
