Plantation d'arbres à feuilles persistantes
See the most intact plantation complex in the South with 37 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places, including 22 slave cabins in their original double-row configuration under a truly spectacular alley of centuries old oak trees. It is a privately owned, working sugar cane plantation. More than 400 individuals were enslaved at Evergreen Plantation over the course of 150 years. Many were exceptionally skilled, working as long sawyers, coopers, carpenters, blacksmiths, engineers, seamstresses, and domestics. Some could trace their ancestry back multiple generations to the first slaves brought to the plantation. This diverse community was made up of Africans, the enslaved from the American South, and Creoles of Louisiana.

Plantation Saint-Joseph
St Jo., built in the 1830’s is one of the few fully intact sugar plantations in the River Parishes. In addition to the Manor Home, this historic site features many outbuildings: original slave cabins, a detached kitchen, blacksmith’s shop, schoolhouse, and chicken coop.
Felicity is a sister plantation to St. Joseph. Built in 1845 on one thousand acres of premium farmland, it was a dowry gift from “Valcour” Aime to one of his daughters, Félicité. She married Alexandre Fortier and they had fourteen children.
