NATCHITOCHES, Louisiana. It's where the famous movie STEEL MAGNOLIAS was filmed. You can even stay in the Steel Magnolia house with the M'Lynn, Shelby, or Claree Suites to pick from. You don't have to travel far to experience the charm of the ORIGINAL French colony in Louisiana. The Natchitoches Historic District comes alive during the famous Festival of Lights held every December drawing record crowds in and out of Louisiana. Northwestern College is in the heart of the city and PURPLE DEMON PRIDE is displayed everywhere. So what more could we ask for as we open our 4th location of Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt you may ask? Not much...Natchitoches has it all! When we made our Orange Leaf Natchitoches facebook page public 5 months ago, it was apparent we had chosen wisely. Today, we have exactly 1,111 fans and we haven't even opened the doors yet! Natchitoches also broke the record for the number of applicants who were "dying" to work here. 45 to be exact! Let's just say people are excited! Every time we came to town with our LEAF shirts on, the questions were sure to follow. "When are you guys opening?" "How can I get an application?" "We are SO excited Orange Leaf is coming to Natchitoches!", Natchitoches residents would exclaim.
Orange Leaf fits nicely within this quaint community and adds to the unlimited attractions that you don't want to miss. The mural painted by famous artist, Fred Stark, depicts the famous Orange Leaf Freaux Yeaux neatly centered over the city of Natchitoches in the airbrushed state of Louisiana. While all the murals are one of a kind, Fred seems to find unique characteristics with each new mural he paints. Natchitoches is no exception. Debuting it HERE on the Geaux Freaux Yeaux blog for the first time, you get a sneak peak of what everyone on Thursday, October 27th will be talking about. We at Orange Leaf Louisiana are so happy to be "Opening Spoon" on 929 Keyser Street in Natchitoches, SPOONER than you think! See you Thursday!
