  • Amy Houser: A Local Legend Who Keeps Showing Up for Caddo Mills
    20 Oct 2026

    Amy Houser’s impact on Caddo Mills is not tied to one business, one title, or one project. It comes from years of noticing what is happening around her and finding ways to help.

    In this episode of The Local Letter, April Pire shares Amy’s story, from taking on the enormous renovation that became Caddo Creamery and creating a downtown gathering place, to building Caddo Cakery, serving with the Caddo Mills Chamber of Commerce, helping organize community events, learning the ins and outs of Planning and Zoning, supporting the fire department, and helping meet needs throughout the community.

    When Local Letter readers were asked who belonged in the Local Legends series, Amy’s name came up again and again for one simple reason:

    “Amy does so much for Caddo Mills.”

    This is the story of a woman who cares deeply about her community and has spent years finding ways to show it.

    The Local Letter shares the stories of the people, small businesses, traditions, and places that make Hunt County, Texas, feel like home.
