Standing along Louisiana's River Road in Vacherie, St. Joseph Plantation and Felicity Plantation place you directly inside one of the most historically layered landscapes in the American South. The air carries the faint sweetness of sugarcane fields, and the canopy of live oaks filters the afternoon light into something almost amber. St. Joseph Plantation and Felicity Plantation together form a corridor of antebellum memory that rewards slow, attentive visitors.
