How it all began

The adventure began when Tracey and Randy escaped for an afternoon of shopping and fun in the Texas Hill Country. The smell of freshly popped popcorn was unmistakable. Like so many other people, we’ve loved popcorn since we were kids and thought it’d make the perfect snack to enjoy while shopping. From the moment we walked into the first popcorn store, we knew there was something missing from downtown Tomball. Since then we’ve made it our goal to elevate this childhood snack and bring it to Tomball.
