A New Chapter at The Batture

Thank you to everyone who has come out to visit Sugar Roots Farm at The Batture. Seeing families, children and animals connecting in this new space has been so special, and it’s shown us just how much potential this little barnyard has.

For this season, this feels like the right direction for Sugar Roots. Our Westbank location will be closed as we put all of our energy, creativity and resources into growing Sugar Roots at The Batture.

25 Walnut Street, New Orleans, LA 70118

And the best part? Everything you love about Sugar Roots can happen here too, including field trips, birthday parties, educational programming, animal encounters and special events.

We’re taking a little time to get organized and create high-quality experiences that are meaningful for children, supportive of our animals and true to our mission.

More is coming. Same heart. New chapter.

Thank you for growing with us. We can’t wait to show you what’s next at The Batture.

We’re feeling so grateful.
