Each year as the summer residents return to Highlands they look to see what’s changed over the winter.
Along Mill Creek on Spruce Street they’ll find Mountain Findings’ new Furniture and Rug Warehouse. With more than 3,900 square feet, this new addition will provide a shopping paradise to people in need of gently-used furniture, rugs, pictures and home accessories.
Don’t be fooled by the attractively landscaped exterior, this flat, easily-accessible space is a treasure house of gently-used items.
“This new space will benefit all of us-customers and volunteers alike,” Mountain Findings President Tom Hill explains. “For several years now, the donations we received exceeded our display and storage space. After careful evaluation, the board decided that more square footage could help us minimize our costs and provide more funds to be donated to the area non-profits.”
Treasurer Bruce Roelke adds, “Since everyone at Mountain Findings is a volunteer (no one is paid), we have more funds to return to the community. Last year we were able to help 34 non-profits in our area fund their many endeavors.”
Mountain Findings, located at 432 Spruce Street, Highlands, is open Monday through Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 P.M., May 1 to October 31. Watch for the Grand Opening some time in May. Drop by your donations during normal hours or call (828) 526-9929 to arrange for pickup of larger furniture items. Volunteers are always needed. Come join in the fun.
