Company History
Wengers of Myerstown was founded in 1947 by Carl Wenger.
Carl began his business career in 1947 at the age of fifteen by serving as a “nickel man” at the local auctions where he would purchase power tools and carpentry supplies that needed repairs. He would take them to his family’s general store in Rexmont, PA to repair and resell them. Carl married Margaret Buffenmeyer of Cornwall, PA in 1950 and the couple moved to the family-owned farm on Race St in Myerstown, PA to begin dairy farming. In 1952 Carl began buying and selling used farm tractors and equipment and by 1958 the business had grown to the point where dairy operations were reduced and Wengers Farm Machinery was incorporated.
Things took a major step forward in 1960 with the construction of a separate building to house the business. Located at 251 South Race Street, the new building was a huge improvement over the makeshift dining room office and shop in the garage at the family farm. The new block building served as the business headquarters for more than 3 decades, until the business would relocate to a new modern facility along route 501 in Myerstown. In 1989 the Wengers moved and expanded their farm equipment and tractor parts operations to the new facility on Route 501 in Myerstown. This new facility included an expanded warehouse to store new and used tractor parts indoors as well as an expanded sales lot to store and sell farm equipment and tractors.
By 1996 the Wengers finished a second building project and moved their construction equipment/parts operations and administrative offices to Route 501 in Myerstown as well. Today, the original building at 251 S Race St is the home of Wengers Machining Services, which is a full-service engine machining shop. In 2006 Wengers added another product line to their business when they opened Wengers Motorcycles Sales. Whether we’re talking about farm machinery, construction equipment, salvage parts or motorcycle sales our goal remains the same, offer good, clean, used equipment for a fair price.
Wengers of Myerstown is proud of its history. Today we employ over 60 people at our 3 locations in Myerstown, including 15 members of the Wenger family. All 7 of Carl & Margaret’s children are active in the company today, as well as 5 of their grandchildren and a few of their spouses, which makes Wengers truly a family business.

The Wenger Foundation
The Wenger Foundation Inc. strives to support religious, educational, and community services programs through corporate contributions from Wengers of Myerstown, as well as, individual contributions and fund solicitations for special events.
The Wenger Foundation, Inc. was founded in January 1996 as a private, non-profit organization. The premier event of the Foundation is the annual Praise Dinner, which was first held as a memorial dinner for Carl and Margaret’s granddaughter, Renee Ann Layser. The community responded so well that the event was re-branded as the Praise Dinner and has continued through the years. There are currently four different ministries benefiting from the event: COBYS Family Services, Friendship Community, Evangelical Seminary, and On Fire Youth Ministry. This event has generated gifts totaling over $2 million for these and other ministries.
Today our mission is to transform our community by funding faith-based and family-centric programs that change lives. If you would like to learn more about the foundation or partner with us, check out the foundation website for more details. Thank you to all who have helped make the Wenger Foundation a success.
Wenger Farms
Wenger Farms was established in 1950 and has been in the registered "American British White Park" cattle business since 1995. American British White Park has been traced back to as early as the year 80 A.D. Even with this extensive history, it is a breed that meets today's beef industry requirements. The cattle are moderately sized with females maturing at 1000-1200 pounds and bull weighing 1800 pounds or more. All the characteristics that today's cattlemen are looking for are found in these cattle: high fertility, calving ease, superior maternal instinct, outstanding vigor, dark pigmentation, predominately polled, and docile.
Improved Maternal Instinct
American British White Park Cows have maternal instincts far superior to the average cow. It is an unknown problem of this breed for cows to not claim their calves. The claiming of the calves by the first calf heifers puts these calves at a developmental advantage over other breeds.
Fertility
The Whites conception rates are high and first calf heifers conceive easily. Cows often remain in herds until they are fifteen or sixteen years old. This is an economic factor that cannot be overlooked by the commercial cowman. High percentage calf crops start with conception and American British White Park cows excel in conception rates.
Oustanding Vigor & Hardiness
Respiratory problems are virtually unknown in this breed. This is unbelievable and difficult to state, but nonetheless, it is a fact. This breed comes from a very hearty background stock that survived in the wild many generations before being domesticated.
Association
This is a new association formed to unite the breeders of American White Park and British White cattle. These two breeds are actually the same breed under different names. Many of the cattle come from the same bloodlines and are not to be confused with the horned Ancient White Parks.
This new organization does not register horned animals. The breeders of American British White Park cattle have put forth much effort to build a breed of the highest quality possible. Give these cattle a try and see what they can do on your own farm or ranch. They cross well with other breeds, but actually produce the best cut-outs as straight line or pure "whites". This association is proving to cattlemen through feedlot tests that American British White Park cattle are a superior beef producing breed for the modern beef industry.
CUT-OUT DATA AVERAGE
Ribeye | 13.5 square inches |
Back Fat | .27 |
Grade Choice | 86% |
Yield Grade | 93% YGI&2 |
Hot Carcass | 705 pounds |
