“Authentic” perfectly captures the experience at St. Joseph Plantation and Felicity Plantation, two historic sugar plantations that continue to operate today as a working sugarcane farm in Vacherie, Louisiana. Still family-owned, these ancestral homes invite visitors to enjoy a relaxed, personal tour of one or both plantations. Guests are encouraged to explore the expansive grounds and preserved historic structures, including original dwellings of the enslaved. Through thoughtfully curated exhibits at the Louisiana Sugarcane Museum, visitors gain meaningful insight into the complex history and daily life of a working sugar plantation.
