Popcorn with Porch Swing Energy
Born on the Carolina Coast, Built on Good Taste
Dixieland Kettle Corn began in 2011 with one coastal curiosity: why wasn’t anyone bringing great kettle corn to the beach? What started as a small local experiment quickly found its rhythm, a Carolina craft rooted in honest ingredients, warm hospitality, and flavors meant to be shared. Over the years, what began as a weekend passion has become a true multi-generation operation with a following all across the Southeast.
Honest ingredients, fair prices, and a little more Mayberry in the world.
We keep our standards simple and steady: make it fresh, make it flavorful, and make people feel welcome. Our kettle corn is prepared with care and consistency, staying true to time-tested methods and the Southern manners we were raised with. Every batch reflects the values we started with, good taste, genuine connection, and the belief that a shared snack is one of life’s simple joys.
Poppin’ up wherever good company gathers.
Today, you’ll find us at festivals and markets from Wilmington to Calabash and plenty of stops across the Southeast. Our loyal crowd of “kettleheads” follows along as we pop fresh batches at artisan markets, coastal events, and seasonal gatherings. Whether you meet us on the boardwalk or spot us at a festival down the road, we’re always grateful for the chance to share a little Southern goodness. Follow along on Facebook to see where we’ll be next.
Made the Carolina Way. Enjoyed Everywhere.
Small-batch craft with a whole lot of heart.
We pop every batch with a little love, a little laughter, and that easygoing Southern spirit. Whether you’re grabbing a bag for the road, the porch, or a crowd, our kettle corn brings the kind of flavor that reminds you why the South knows how to do things right.
