Mast General Store features traditional fashions, comfortable footwear, outdoor and travel gear, jams and jellies, old-timey toys, and over 500 old-fashioned favorite candies. With root in the rural North Carolina mountains, the Mast Store is a family of stores in historic buildings. The "newest" old location opened on Columbia's Main Street in 2011 in a building with a long retail history. Today, it welcomes visitors with a unique mix of goods, wood floors, and a pressed tin ceiling and invites them to wander into yesteryear.
