The historic Harriston Post Office remains a significant landmark in the community and has been restored and reimagined as a hub of business & creativity. Built in 1912 and last used as a mail outlet in the mid-1980s, the historic Harriston Post Office remains a significant landmark in Harriston’s downtown.

$17,500 Fundraising Goal Achieved!

Today is #GivingTuesday, a day for giving and volunteering, taking place each year after Cyber Monday. We launched our clock tower and bell fundraising campaign last year on Giving Tuesday, so it seems fitting today to announce that we have achieved our $17,500 goal! The clock is ticking. The bell is in place and will begin ringing again very, very soon. Words cannot express our gratitude for the continued support of our community members, local businesses and organizations in bringing this important community landmark back to life. http://www.theoldpost.ca/17500-fundraising-goal-achieved/
