Welcome to the Market!


Welcome to the Market!

Lizzie’s Pantry is a local supplier of Wheat Montana products. Here’s what they have to say…
We are proud to offer the highest standard of wheat, flour and grains to the South! We are so proud to offer Wheat Montana products that are all GMO Free, Chemical Free, All Natural, Nothing Added, Nothing Removed, Excellent in Protein, and Simply Delicious! You won’t find a better quality offering in the South East.

Molly’s Suds started in Buford, GA in 2008! We began our company after the stillbirth of our daughter Molly. As a pediatric nurse and mom, I became aware of the dangers in our laundry products and household cleaners while researching stillbirths. Studies show that the chemicals in our cleaning products and bath and body products are found in new born cord blood! We vow to make products without estrogens, carcinogens and human toxins. Safe for people and the planet!

Order online today until 8pm!
