Dan Byers with 6 Pack Meats

Located in Berwick, Illinois, the Byers’ family farming operation began with first generation farmer, Ron Byers, in the late 1970s. 6 Pack Meats started in 2020 when Dan and his wife, Missy, were looking for a way to grow the butcher beef sales which were already a part of the farm. The natural next step was to expand and offer their products to a larger audience through smaller bundles, local delivery sales and shipping within the continental U.S. Issues in the food supply chain and consumers’ desire for more farm-to-table purchases drove Dan and Missy to take the steps to help meet this demand by expanding product offerings to pork as well.
