National Farm Safety Week means taking care of the people who put food on our tables.

Harvest brings long hours, dusty conditions, dangerous grain bins, and work that’s sometimes done alone. For the rest of us, it means slowing down on country roads, leaving extra time, and giving farm equipment room.

Check in on the farmers in your life. Give them space to work and time to get home safely.

Thank you to the farmers who grow our corn and make Kernel Pop’s possible. 🌽🍿

🍂 Fall has finally arrived, and we’re taking Kernel Pop’s on a Saturday trip through scenic Southern Illinois!

Find us at the Stonefort Market in the morning, then follow the smell of fresh kettle corn to Creal Springs starting at 1 PM. Two small-town stops, one sweet Saturday. Come see us! 🍿❤️

Headed home from the homecoming parade? Make one more stop before you call it a night! 🍿

We just filled the Kernel Pop’s honor box at 152 Meyer St in Flora, and it’s ready whenever you are. Swing by, pick your favorite bag, and take a little something sweet and salty home for the evening.

And if you’re making a special trip just for popcorn, we love that too. ❤️

💧 Moisture is the enemy of the crunch!

After opening your Kernel Pop’s, twist the bag tightly closed and reuse the tape or twist tie that came with it. That simple step helps protect the crisp, sweet-and-salty goodness for your next snack attack.

Of course, finishing the whole bag works pretty well too.
