farms

A farmer in St. Landry parish has found a way to protect his chickens, while keeping the grounds fresh for them.

One farmer at the Lafayette Farmers and Artisans Market was recently visited by National Geographic.

The issue has been a decade in the making, and is reportedly an effect of the economic recession felt in this country 10-15 years ago.

Pumpkin picking, hay rides, and family fun are just some of the activities available at these local and regional farms.
