On 1 July 2016 the new commune of Jorat-Mézières was formed by the merger of Carrouge, Ferlens and Mézières (see below).

Jorat-Mézières' emblem is the only one in Switzerland with potato blossoms (as was Mézières' potato plant). They remind of a court case in 1790, when local pastor Martin refused to pay the tithe tax on the potatoes on the grounds that they are not grain, but a vegetable. He was arrested because of it, but in the capital Bern (Vaud was still part of Bern) finally acquitted.
