Mountain Findings of Highlands A volunteer run non-profit 501(c)3 thrift store featuring donated furniture, home accessories, linens and art in all price ranges. Donations are tax deductible.

Funds go directly back in our communities as grants, scholarships, and in disaster relief. Mountain Findings of Highlands, North Carolina started in 1969 and on May 10, 1972, became a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Since then, nearing $6 MILLION has been given back into our community through grants. From humble beginnings over half a century ago, the first grants given out totaled $200. Mountain Findings emerged out of a pursuit to inspire and support the community, and a desire for actions to speak louder than words.

In memory of Larry Brannan, a cherished friend and devoted leader of Mountain Findings.

The Mountain Findings family is deeply saddened by the passing of former President and longtime volunteer, Larry Brannan, on October 10.

Larry’s impact on our organization and the Highlands community is immeasurable. Joining us in the late 1990s, he worked tirelessly to secure our Cottage location, oversaw key expansions, and personally purchased our very first delivery truck to help us better serve our neighbors. His decades of steady guidance on our Board of Directors helped build the strong foundation we still stand on today.

We extend our deepest condolences to Larry’s family and friends. His incredible legacy of generosity, dedication, and heart will always remain a vital part of our history. 🕊️❤️

Mountain Findings is celebrating a truly wonderful year! 🌲✨ Our 2026 Impact grants, outreach, and scholarships hit an absolute home run! ⚾️🎉

Thanks to the incredible dedication of our 100% volunteer team, the generosity of our donors, and every single shopper who walked through our doors at 452 Spruce St., we’ve been able to give back to our community in bigger ways than ever before. 💚

Recently, our incredible volunteers gathered at the U.S. Forest Service Nantahala National Forest’s Cliffside Recreation Area to celebrate the conclusion of another successful year before many of our seasonal team members head back home.

Again, we are so deeply grateful for the hard work, passion, and time our 100% volunteer-run team puts into supporting our community. Because of our dedicated tireless volunteers, it has been an absolutely fantastic year.

To our volunteers returning home for the season: thank you for everything, and we wish you a safe journey! We already look forward to welcoming you back next year.
