Farmer's Market Open Thursdays

The Farmer's Market is still open on Thursdays at the Fair Barn! There is still fresh produce, delicious baked goods and beautiful fresh flowers available. The market is open on Thursdays from noon until 5pm. Go by and support our local farmers.

Book Amnesty Month

September is Book Amnesty Month at West Feliciana Parish Library. This means those books and DVDs you were afraid to return are fine-free. That's right- all overdue fines will be forgiven the month of September. But there is a catch---each person is invited to donate a canned good at the library for the local food bank in lieu of your "over due book fee".

The library is open 9-7 Monday through Thursday, 9-6 on Friday and 9-1 on Saturday. Please call 225-635-3364 for more information.
