Yá’át’ééh shik’éí dóó shidine’é!
Mabuhay!
Howdy!
Hi everyone! Our friends, family, and our community! We have some exciting news!

BarKadas, Prickly Foods, and Howdy Cakes are moving in to the National Hispanic Cultural Center this summer!

We are coming together to form La Carinderia- a multifaceted cafe featuring Barkadas’ delicious and highly acclaimed Filipino food, Howdy Cakes’ award winning Diné and SW inspired treats with occasional savory meals, and Prickly Foods’ incredible refreshing Prickly Pear Based Beverages.

This is such an exciting step toward growth for all of us and we can’t wait to work together to provide our best to everyone with daily walk in service.

We will be hosting series of fundraising events over the next couple months to help us make the cost of startup renovations, so we will be sharing that info soon!

Thank you so much for your encouragement and support from the very beginning- we couldn’t have come this far without it! We’re nervous and extremely excited! We’ll see you this summer from the NHCC!

-Cindy, Liz, and Will

Hey friends,
It’s a BIG weekend for us…not only will we be at the Chocolate and Coffee Festival Sat and Sun…but we’re finally getting to share something we’ve been working on for a long time.

A NEW PRODUCT!!

Our Dééh: Navajo Tea with prickly pear is now available! Brewed from the greenthread plant and lightly sweetened with prickly pear syrup, now in a gorgeous 16 oz can, designed by our friends over at Nahi, and canned still with nitrogen for a smooth, easy sip.
You can now grab one at any of our regular markets, and coming soon to the other places you can find us like all La Montanita Co-op locations, Tiny Grocer, and more.

We’ll be doing a full release party later in the summer…along celebrating some other big news we have coming up so stay tuned.

Hey friends,
A few weeks ago we celebrated our 4-year business anniversary (as well as our sibling biz Howdy Cakes) and had an awesome group cooking class over at our partner Three Sisters Kitchen, showing folks how to make a 3-course menu of prickly pear flavored dishes. And we got some nice shots from the occasion we wanted to share.
AND as we gear up for the Prickly Pear Festival weekend a reminder that if you want to get in the spirit of prickly pear harvest season, you can grab our lemonades and syrups at both Albuquerque La Montanita Co-op locations as well as Tiny Grocer in Old Town…and of course at the NM Prickly Pear Festival Sept 26th-27th out at the Gutierrez Hubbel House
Hope to see you there!
