Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Ponchatoula has established itself as the "Strawberry Capital of the World" on account of its vast strawberry production. In years gone by, strawberry cultivation was responsible for a great deal of local employment, however, now that the industry is heavily mechanized, the city now relies more heavily on tourism to propel the local economy.
Situated in an attractive location, not merely in terms of the alluring climate (which is particularly suited to strawberry cultivation among other things), but also with respect to its closeness to both New Orleans and to Baton Rouge, Ponchatoula makes for an attractive proposition to those who are looking to find a rental property within the little city of a mere 5,000 inhabitants. However, it's not so much about high rise apartment style blocks in this part of the world. Rather, think country living; think owls hooting in the middle of the night; think miles and miles and row upon row of strawberry bushes. This is what Ponchatoula truly represents - the perfect getaway after a long day at work! View Ponchatoula City Guide
