Farming has been a very prominent source for food and resources in The Great Plains and has now become important in New Orleans. There are many organizations that support local, urban farming in hopes of providing healthier food, reducing environmental hazards and storm water runoff, as well create more jobs and attract economic activity. Although farming is not a primary food source in New Orleans, many families are beginning to grow their own fruits and vegetable to aim towards more sustainable eating habits. While reaching for these urban farming goals, New Orleans has seen a spike in corn growth, just as in the Great Plains.
