The Earth Pantry to close storefront in Augusta
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WJBF) – The Earth Pantry, an eco-friendly store in Downtown Augusta, is closing its storefront this month, according to an announcement from owner Alexia Redman. In a Facebook post on May 28, Redman shared the news with customers that the store's last day in operation would be June 12, 2025. The store is offering a 25% off throughout the store upon closing, and a 'Goodbye Party' is scheduled for June 7 at the location on 1026 Broad Street. The announcement in its entirety can be read below: With over 5000 containers saved from the landfill, The Earth Pantry is closing our storefront. It has been a blessing to be able to connect with this community. If this store opened just so that I could meet so many beautiful people, that would be enough. If this store opened so that one person could meet Jesus, then that would be enough. I am grateful that this little place on Broad St was able to share so much love, feed so many, help so many with eczema, and educate so many on the effects that plastic & chemicals have on the health of ourselves and our planet. I hope that the spirit of The Earth Pantry will continue to stir in your minds as you continue to shop differently knowing that you can save the earth one choice at a time. The Earth Pantry will not be gone forever. I will continue to make our products on our family farm, Pinefield Eco Farm. For now, we will be focusing on wholesale, growing our farm, and nurturing our soon-to-be baby. Our plan is to create a mobile farm market. Some of the products from The Earth Pantry will be coming back in this mobile market. If you would like to stay tuned for updates, please subscribe to our mailing list. Until then, we will not leave you hanging. Please keep your eyes open for a document that contains all our sources, so that you can continue to get the products you trust and love. We are offering 25% off store-wide through June 12th. Please help us to leave without inventory. If you want your pantry to look like our store, all containers will be on sale as well! If you are interested in any furniture/equipment or have a business inquiry, please reach out to us at hello@ Love, Alexia Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Egg prices lowering in time for Easter weekend, what local stores are seeing
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WJBF) – Easter Weekend means many of you will be dyeing Easter eggs. And the cost of eggs is coming down just in time for the holiday. Although egg prices are lower than two months ago, some local stores are struggling to get and keep eggs in their stores. Lanier's has only been able to get one case for each shipment. Sometimes, they come in broken, so only a few dozen can be put out for their customers. The good news is that the price of those eggs has decreased dramatically over the past two weeks — From 8-99 a dozen to the current price of 5-99. 'It's really been a hindrance on getting the eggs and trying to keep them in stock,' said Arrie Towner, Store Manager at Lanier's Fresh Meat Market. 'I've never seen where I could get one case of eggs. Like that's really been unheard of, and I've been buying for like ten years.' The Earth Pantry gets its eggs from a local farmer. The owner says that has helped her keep her prices lower. She told me she had been called the hidden gem in the area. 'We have one of the lowest egg prices in town, and as people come in and realize they're like, 'oh, I got to get eggs here,' we sell out really quickly,' said Alexia Redman, Owner and Founder of The Earth Pantry. 'We get eggs every Tuesday around noon, and they're usually gone by Wednesday afternoon.' At Fresh Take, sales have increased since prices started dropping. The assistant manager is unsure if this has to do with Easter and people wanting to dye eggs or the prices. 'We have seen a tremendous increase, about 28%, in our store. Especially this week during Easter,' said Michael Johnson, Assistant Store Manager at Fresh Take. Stores we spoke to hope the egg prices continue to lower. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
