I've been working with KGW Kettle Corn for many years! It’s been incredible to watch this local favourite grow as they’ve really leaned into their website and social channels to build awareness and boost sales.

A recent highlight is seeing their kettle corn fundraising program take off, expanding significantly over the past couple of years!

Here’s to more growth and sweet success! 🍿✨

Do you have enough snacks for the long weekend? Our kettle corn comes in many flavours, is gluten free and perfect for entertaining! Load up at Bountiful Farmers' Market!

Hi everyone - it's been awhile since I posted here, but I'm excited to be working on another fun project with the folks from Baseline Farmers Market and KGW Kettle Corn. They are going to be running two pop-up farmers' markets in the parking lot of Premium Outlet Collection Edmonton International Airport next Tuesday, Sep 25 and Oct 2, 4-7pm. If you're heading out to do some shopping at Edmonton's newest mall, be sure to check out Airport Community Farmers' Market and their great vendors. And please be sure to follow their page for updates on upcoming farmers' markets and possible expansion. 😃 -Jody
