Louisiana has countless plantations and historical markers peppered throughout the state that every Louisianian should check out at least once. Laurel Valley Village, in particular, should move to the top of the list, and once you visit, you’ll understand why.

It makes for a great day trip for families with kids of all ages, especially since you’ll be able to feed all the farm animals on the property. Let’s take a closer look.
