Some exciting news for Washington Parish and the surrounding areas in Louisiana! “American Pickers,” the popular documentary series from The History Channel, is set to film episodes in Louisiana in February 2024. This show, which delves into the fascinating world of antique picking, follows expert pickers as they search for valuable and historically significant antiques across America.

The team is particularly interested in unique items with compelling stories and is eager to learn about America’s past through these objects. The show emphasizes the idea of giving a new lease on life to forgotten relics while preserving their historical significance.

For residents of Washington Parish and nearby locales, this presents a unique opportunity. If you or someone you know in the area has a distinctive collection or an interesting item with a story, and are willing to sell, the American Pickers team would be delighted to hear from you. They are particularly interested in private collections, emphasizing that they do not pick from stores, flea markets, malls, auction businesses, museums, or any locations open to the public.

To reach out to the American Pickers team, you can email them at americanpickers@cineflix.com with your name, phone number, location, and a description of the collection, including photos. Alternatively, you can also call them at (646) 493-2184. They also have a Facebook page (@GotAPick) for more information.
