West Feliciana Parish features rolling hills and bluffs along the Mississippi River with loess soils and extensive hardwood forests. The parish contains some of Louisiana's highest elevations and most varied topography along the river corridor.

Agriculture consists mainly of small to medium-sized operations including beef cattle ranching on improved pastures in the rolling hills. Timber operations harvest hardwood and pine forests, while some specialty crops and agritourism operations serve niche markets.
