We’re grateful to recognize Thai Orchid as a sponsor of the Eau Claire Hmong New Year 2026!

Thai Orchid is a longtime local favorite, serving fresh, home-style Thai cuisine with a variety of traditional dishes, flavorful curries, and options for every taste. Beyond their dedication to bringing people together through food, owners Cheng Cha and Carrie Cha play important leadership roles in this year’s celebration, serving as ECHNY Chair and Logistics Lead. Their dedication to preserving culture, strengthening community, and bringing people together reflects the heart of the Eau Claire Hmong New Year.

Thank you, Thai Orchid, for your leadership, continued support, and commitment to our community and culture!
