Post, Texas has had its ups and down.  Founded in 1907 by cereal magnate Charles William Post, the town was to be a model city and social experiment.  Postex Mills, opened in 1913, was the largest employer hiring up to 450 people and producing millions of yards of cloth -- despite various changes of ownership.  After the mill closed, its buildings were home to "Old Mill Trade Days" drawing multitudes of shoppers to the small town, but that attraction ran its course and closed.  Post has re-instated "Trade Day Downtown" inviting folks to travel to Post on the first Saturday of the month.  One can shop unique boutiques,  antiques, books, and even an entire store devoted to Christmas.  Post also offers the OS Museum and the Garza County Historical Museum for those so inclined.  And if you're looking for a place to do business in Post, this former department store in the middle of downtown on Main Street is available.
