Backwater Foie Gras 

Located an hour’s drive north of New Orleans, we are a pasture-based family farm passionately and responsibly producing artisanal foie gras and specialty poultry.

* We are currently on a break from producing foie and pastured poultry for market. Stay tuned for the future! *

Backwater Farmstead

More than a small family business, we are a working farmstead. With our family milk cow, backyard pigs, pastured poultry, and more, we seek to cultivate a beautiful and thriving family culture on our farm.
