 Forest Finds is a thrift shop which is sponsored
by Forest Presbyterian Church, Lyons Falls. Their mission is: “to provide low-cost
quality items by turning the surplus of society into a source to support
the needs of our community”. They have been open for 21 years. The entrance
to their shop is on Gorham Street. The shop is presently managed by Kathy
Huzzy with several faithful volunteers. The shopping hours are Tuesdays and
Thursdays, 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturdays 9 a.m. to 12 noon. Items sold at
the shop are clothing, books, toys, household items, and jewelry. Donations
for the shop are accepted daily from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
A high percentage
of proceeds of the store goes back into the community for those in need. They
also provide 100 free meals, “Caring Hearts”, every other month. Forest
Finds donates multiple baskets to several local organizations for their
events and benefits. The shop has made multiple donations to various groups
like Church World Service for blankets, all the food pantries in Lewis
County, Lyons Falls Fire Department to name a few. The most recent donation
