Frogmore Cotton Plantation & Gins
COTTON, THEN & NOW is the story told at Frogmore Plantation, and there is cotton in the fields to pick from mid-July through April; then planting begins anew. An 1800-acre working cotton plantation, Frogmore has 19 restored antebellum structures that date from the late 1700’s, but also a computerized farming & ginning operation. Selected by Rand McNally as a “Must See Site” and rated a near perfect score by Trip Advisors, Frogmore’s narration reveals little known facts regarding the origin, political, and legal climate of slavery. Facts regarding the emancipation, the slave music, and European factors that triggered changes in America assist visitors to depart with a thorough understanding of the evolution of plantation life. This guided tour follows the early Natchez planters and their slaves through freedom and their new lifestyle called sharecropping. Visitors contrast the historical days with a tour of the computerized cotton gin and modern plantation which includes world production, cotton bale trivia, and seed products.
NEW TOUR OPTION: The Plantation Civil War: Challenges and Changes
To commemorate the Sesquicentennial of the Civil War, Frogmore Plantation is offering a special tour - a concise but complete history of the Civil War on plantations, including causes beginning with our constitution, conflicts between Confederates and Unionists, economics and politics that fueled the fires, and effects on slaves and owners. This tour does not discuss battle strategy, but does include the Union army regime and takeover of the Natchez District. Frogmore was the site of encampment and skirmish for 1,776 Union troops led by Col. Bernard Farrar including the Illinois infantry and heavy artillery. The old Natchez District included Eastern Louisiana, and many plantation owners were Union, not Confederate sympathizers. Text includes effects of federal army occupation on area plantations, federal corral in Natchez for freed slaves, Confederate guerilla activity against Union planters, and the effects of the war on the women, children, & slaves left behind, along with the plantation crops, gins, and food supplies. (This tour has no duplication with other tours offered at Frogmore.)
Group tours may optionally have a live vocalist incorporating the Civil War era songs of the slaves and freedmen who joined the armies, or a vocalist singing the hymns and parlor songs of Stephen Foster.
Also, call for dates and times of our musical presentation entitled “The Delta Music Tour.” Superior live vocalists and narrator bring to life plantation culture intertwined with gospel songs. Then make a stop at the nearby State of La. Delta Music Museum and Hall of Fame. Listen to intimate stories about famous Delta musicians such as Jerry Lee Lewis, Mickey Gilley, Percy Sledge, Aaron Neville and Fats Domino.
