How it does good
Counting on local corn farmers for success
The supply chain for corn farmers can be tricky to navigate. Often, they're competing with big, commercial farms. The Pipsnacks founders fell in love with unique qualities of heirloom corn and decided to work directly with small family farmers in the U.S. to source their special kernels. By relying on these farmers, their products have more nutritional value than commercially grown popcorn—and a better taste. Pipsnacks honors the history of heirloom corn farming by saving seeds from their harvests to replant later. They work with like-minded suppliers and prioritize treating people with respect. Plus, they make their packaging fully recyclable whenever they're able to.
Pipsnacks has partnered with Save with Stories to make donations to Save the Children and No Kid Hungry.

Pipsnacks sources their heirloom corn from a small network of family farmers, and they use organic whey sourced from Wisconsin dairy farms as a byproduct of their milk production. They also upcycle corn byproducts from the cheese balls into crackers, which means they're able to use 99.9% of all the heirloom corn they purchase for a virtually no-waste process.

About the Brand
Pipsnacks
Once upon a time, Jen and her brother Jeff were packing up her Chicago apartment when they found a bag of teeny, tiny heirloom corn kernels. After popping this special little bag of corn, they loved it so much that they found the family farmer who grew it (he was in Indiana). A little while later, Jen, Jeff, and Jeff’s wife Teresa launched their company: the women-owned, minority-owned, family-owned, really great little thing called Pipsnacks.

United StatesSo addictive!
Yes, it's a cheese puff, but a most delicious one. Buy more than one bag!
United StatesWill always choose these over other brands!
My favorite puff cheese balls! Great texture and amazing taste.
United StatesWould buy again
Pretty darn good
United StatesThese are terrific, just not cheesey/salty enough
Great crunch and flavor, and no shame in dumping a little of macandcheese powder inside the bag for real glory!
United StatesNice Snack!!
This was a very good snack- but not a great one. I was hoping for a sharper cheese flavor. It was pretty bland. I have a feeling from other Hive products I have ordered ( Pickles with Jalapeño and Horseradish ) that I can find a with more of a kick in the Hive Brand inventory!!!
