This tiny farm setting had all the fun, a playground, massive sand pit, covered dining and picnic area, ponies to ride, varied animals to feed and others to admire. Both kids and adults made their ways to each area. I thought this was a really nice little place to bring kids. Highly recommend.

They also host other events like- a berry bash, summer camp, farmer trade day, pancakes and pjs, and ties and tiaras. I visited for Halloween in 2018 when my son was about 10 months old and had a great day! They had a pumpkin patch, face painting, pumpkin carving, a costume contest, a corn maze, a petting zoo, a jumping area for the older kids, and so much more to see! Then staff were friendly and there was plenty of parking. They also have an elegant space for weddings/receptions. It is truly an enjoyable experience for the entire family.

Wow! What a fun place for a school field trip! My 4 year old's class rode the bus there while the…read moreparents followed in their cars (not too bad of a drive - 1 hour from Baton Rouge). When we got there, there was plenty of parking and very easy to find (thanks to signs along the way). Everything was organized from the get go. Several other schools were there, but they had plenty of workers to keep things running smoothly. I wanted to share their mission statement I found on the website because I agree they are doing this: "Mission Statement To provide an educational, "hands on" learning adventure for families and organizations of all ages. To spread the love of the land and animals to all our guests both big and small, and instill the importance of keeping the American Agricultural values alive. To provide a professional, clean environment with emphasis on safety and dignity for both our guests and our animals." Liuzza was definitely hands on and educational. I especially loved all the fun facts signs around, and in general the setup was simple with chalkboard and burlap but so cute and creative. Definitely knew we were at a farm, but it was just more cute than rough and rigid. The animals seemed happy, the strawberries were delicious and plentiful for the picking! I loved the bus tour and mule-drawn trailer ride but could have honestly loved if they had told us more about the land and the history. Such a beautiful and well kept up place though! I was so surprised to see that they do weddings here! A beautiful outdoor area was set up for a wedding and there's the most precious, little chapel! Definitely a romantic setting for a wedding!! I would just love to be a guest for one here! I hope to be able to return on the open to the public days or even a special occasion like their Easter egg hunt. We were there for probably only 3 hours but definitely could have stayed longer. We fed goats, saw a zebra eating among all the horses, saw cows, an alpaca, a sheep, geese, but we managed to miss the pigs and bunnies. Must go back for those! The kids went crazy over the awesome slide built into a hill and the big jumpy thing (don't know what those are called lol). We definitely must return and so should you!!

We went there today and was actually very disappointed. There was no pumpkin patch but a poor/some collection of pumpkins in the yard. There was no hay bale maze, the zip line was broken, the spider web ropes were broken, the machines that you put a quarter in to get food to feed the animals was completely empty (even though there was not much people today). And then as we were finished and was going to see if the "train" could bring us back because my husband who is a disabled veteran who's foot was sore from walking, the staff member told us his boss won't allow him to do it anymore and besides it was broken down anyways. With so many things not working or unavailable you would think they would at least lower the prices!

He's a picky eater, but he devoured that sandwich!!We are looking forward to returning there soon with the whole family as I'm hoping to see the farm animals...and try their new crunchy wrap.

Congested with wandering tourists, most of the vendors sell items that could be found at any flea market in the country. A lot of the souvenirs and clothing fell way short in reflecting authentic New Orleans craftsmanship. I was hoping for a market more along the lines of Barcelona's La Boqueria with bounties of fresh produce and appetizing edibles, but there was just a row of fast food kiosks beyond the beignets at Cafe du Monde. Without a doubt, the highlight of the market was the strolling groups of musicians randomly playing jazz to enraptured tourists. RELATED - Exploring New Orleans?
