Prickly Foods and Preserves – Prickly Foods and Preserves

If snacks could talk, ours would ask...

"When's the next..
epic hike? race? bike trip? adventure? pickleball match? rave!? triathalon? beach day? time we're camping?

Adventure food straight from the source.

"I got the dehydrated watermelon and it was fantastic! Tasted great and keeps for a very long time. Great for taking on hikes or as a quick snack on the go. Highly recommend!!"

Some amazing products; the dehydrated watermelon with tajin is incredible, as is the prickly pear lemonade. Tart and not overly sweet. I love that Prickly uses all natural and organic ingredients with no weird chemicals or preservatives!

Amazing all natural fruit leather and jam. Enjoyed meeting them at the farmers market.These guys love what they do!

Everything I’ve had so far has been so good. The dehydrated watermelon is probably my favorite. The granola bars are awesome also. Definitely looking forward to trying out more of their stuff.
