All roadside attractions are a little strange. That’s part of their charm. However, of all the roadside attractions in Mississippi, the Frog Farm is easily one of the strangest – in the best way possible, of course.
Undeniably quirky and located along a stretch of rural highway, the Frog Farm is a quintessential roadside attraction.

The frogs and their friends have all been created by Louise Cadney Coleman.

Coleman’s quirky characters have been strategically placed throughout the farm, making it a great place for a whimsical walk.
