About Us
Fresh Pickin's Produce Market was established in Baton Rouge, Louisiana in 1993 by lifelong friends Paul Ferachi and Russell Saia. Three short years later, a second location was established to service the "ACADIANA” area in Lafayette, Louisiana.
We pride ourselves in providing our customers with fresher produce at lower prices than conventional produce outlets. We accomplish this by going directly to the growers, shippers, and local farmers to purchase our produce. By purchasing direct, there is no distribution center or "middle” man, resulting in fresher produce at more affordable prices.
We also specialize in a wide selection of Louisiana products such as seasonings, jellies, local honey, breads, dairy, pickled products, and many other "LOUISIANA CAJUN” items.
Fresh Pickin's Produce Markets were built on our commitment to provide fresher products, better pricing, wider selection, and friendlier service in our family-operated open-air markets. Our New Orleans style, open-air markets are locally owned and operated and well-staffed to ensure a pleasurable shopping experience.
Fresh Pickin’s Produce Markets offer a full line of fresh produce, including many hard-to-find gourmet items and of course welcomes walk-in wholesale customers!
We stock over fifty varieties of fresh frozen fruits and vegetables for year round table fare. Be sure to check out our fantastic fruit baskets, the perfect healthy gift for any occasion. Please visit us in Baton Rouge or Lafayette!
