July is 'National Picnic Month' and in honor of the holiday, we've located the ten best places to enjoy a picnic in the Shreveport-Bossier City area.

It's no surprise that locals are turning to outdoor activities more and more during the pandemic and hopefully, it's a trend that continues. In fact, experts encourage it. After all, there's only so much Netflix you can watch. Really!

With that being said, plan something fun and different for your family this weekend. It's an inexpensive way to do some family bonding and make some memories together. Fresh air can do wonders for you both mentally and physically. So, grab a basket or a Walmart bag, it doesn't matter, cobble together a meal and make your way to the great outdoors. It's even a good idea for a date! Don't feel like cooking? We won't tell if you run through a drive-thru on your way! Maybe grab a bucket of chicken or maybe some of those charcuterie-style pre-made deli packages if you want to be all fancy!

What are you waiting for? It's time to grab that picnic blanket, the bug spray and sunscreen, and maybe one of those battery-operated fans and check these ten great local parks out!
