Pittston Popcorn Co. made its presence known in downtown Pittston earlier this year. After spending the business’ first three years near the Pittston Bypass, owners Stephen and Reba Kolbeck moved the business to Main Street this past summer.

Now, they offer their flavored popcorn at the Pittston City Farmers Market each week. The business has been coming to the farmers market for two years.

Each week, the Sunday Dispatch will feature a vendor from the weekly market. Check out Pittston Popcorn Co. at the market, held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. every Tuesday through November.
