Many customers tell us milk from Meyer Bros. Dairy tastes so fresh. It’s no secret – our milk tastes fresh because it is!
Cliff, Herb, Ted and Bob Meyer started Meyer Bros. Dairy by selling milk from their Long Lake dairy farm in 1936. The farm was located just off Old Crystal Bay Road.
Bob milked the 12 cows, Cliff managed the bottling operation, and their brothers pitched in early each morning to fill the glass bottles, four at a time.
In those early days, the Meyer brothers sold bottles of fresh milk for 18-20 cents each. They worked 12-hour days, delivering milk directly to customers’ iceboxes in their homes, to schools and to businesses.
Meyer Bros Dairy has now teamed up with Cass Clay. Our combined 145 years of service in the Dairy business is only matched by our commitment to quality and reliability to you, our customers. In May of 2007 Cass Clay became a division of AMPI (Associated Milk Producers Inc) New Ulm, MN, a dairy marketing cooperative with more than 4,000 farmer-owners, in the Midwest, with $1 billion in annual sales of dairy products regionally and nationally.
