The Ross family– first day of ownership January 1, 2019

A family- run business since 1975.

Established in 1975, The Hitching Post began as a family-operated feed supply store after the closing of the Great Star Flour Mill in January of that year. We continue to operate as a feed supply retail outlet as one of the largest non-manufacturing Shur Gain dealerships in Ontario. To this day we carry locally milled Arva Flour supplies to maintain the tradition of the original mill in our town. The Ross family have been operating as owners since January 2019 and along with their staff, take pride in serving the community they live in.
