“FARM LAND, CATFISH AND FREE SPIRITS”

Over the years working in the oil fields of Louisiana I have had the privilege of going to some small city’s and meeting some good small time folk and one such place was “Des Allemands” located in the boondocks of st.charles parish,this here is catfish country the folks here eat ,sleep and eat catfish. surrounded by a bunch of small lakes and waterways the catfish is prime pickings.
Now the folks of des allemands not only like their catfish it also a pretty active farming community ,growing such local favorites as Creole tomatoes and okra.
The folks in this town are also or known for one more thing …Festivals and of course the biggest of them all is the catfish festival, man for 3 days you can smell the catfish and hear the zydeco music clear on down to New Orleans, man talking about a good time after that festival I don’t even wanna see no catfish….for about a week(lol), so come on down and have a catfish eating good time.
