Our story

In 2018 founder Sage Schwer established Porch Finds, an online thrift store with styling services and pop-up events, to advocate for sustainability and individuality. PF helps people enhance their personal style with unique, preloved fashion.

Porch Finds was originally conceived as a pop-up event by Sage and her college friends. They transformed their college porch into the likes of a boutique, outfitted with a rug, chandelier and racks of contemporary & vintage fashion. The event was well-received by friends and fellow students, inspiring a second pop-up with an even higher student turnout!

Today, Porch Finds is headquartered in Sage’s hometown, Jersey City, NJ. We host monthly pop-ups in and around New York City. We hope to see you at our next event!
