Popcorn Planet

We have to give a huge shoutout to the amazing Jenna Strong at AlleyT Custom Apparel & Promotional Products!

She grabbed bags of popcorn for the teachers at Allendale Public Schools and helped us get one step closer to MM's goal of selling 1,000 bags for his Detroit Lions challenge! 🦁🍿

Not only did she support our small business, but she also treated some hardworking teachers at the same time. We absolutely love seeing people celebrate and appreciate those who pour so much into our kids every day.

And the best part? She let us get a little creative with the order! 👀

Head to the comments to see what special goodies she picked out for the teachers!

Thank you, Jenna, for supporting MM, supporting local, and helping us move one bag closer to our goal. Every bag truly makes a difference.

We are so excited to be back at Nord Social tomorrow from 12–4 🍿

Of course, we'll be bringing our gourmet popcorn, but we also have a special treat coming along.

The last time we were there, a new friend made a special request, and we couldn't stop thinking about it...

👀 Everything Seasoned Cashews!

They're savory, crunchy, and packed with all that delicious everything seasoning flavor.

Stop by, say hi, and check out what we've been working on. We can't wait to spend another afternoon with this amazing community!

We received a card in the mail from our amazing friends Ben ⌚️and Amy at ABeckCreations and Gratiot Markets today!

MM was so excited that it was addressed to his business. He told me I had to wait for him to open it because he wanted to finish helping our wonderful mail lady first (we love you, Kristen!).

What I wasn't expecting was for him to read almost the entire card by himself.

And it was written in cursive.

As I stood there listening to him read, I was reminded once again why we started making popcorn in the first place.

When we started Popcorn Planet, I thought maybe he would learn some basic money skills and a little math. What I never imagined was how much he would grow in so many other ways.

His reading. His social skills. His confidence. His communication. His independence.

There were so many tears over the years thinking about the things he might never do. Now I find myself crying for a different reason — because of all the things he IS doing.

Because of the family and friends who rally around us. The new friendships we've made. The communities that continue to support and encourage him.

This card is more than a card. It's a reminder of how far he's come and how many amazing people have helped him along the way.

Thank you, ABeckCreations and Gratiot Markets. This one is definitely a keeper. 💛🍿

We can't wait to see everyone at the markets this year!
