Your favorite popcorn shop is turning 75! Garrett Popcorn Shops have been serving up delicious snacks since 1949. 75 years later, it still uses the same secret recipes, real ingredients and handcrafted small batches. Its custom grown, non-GMO kernels are first hot-air popped, then enriched with flavor in old-fashioned copper kettles to provide customers with that iconic flavor. Celebrate Garrett Popcorn’s 75th anniversary the entire month of September with giveaways, specialty items and more.
