TWILA : October 18, 2024
In this episode of TWILA, we journey across history, agriculture, and culture. Neil Melancon takes us to Poverty Point, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to explore how early indigenous people lived in what was once the most populous area in North America. Karl Wiggers travels to Franklin Parish to tell us why one young farmer is banking on cotton despite the state's dwindling acres. We also see how farmers are stepping up in the wake of Hurricane Helene, showcase the LSU Ag Center’s Farm to School Conference and celebrate Louisiana’s Italian farming heritage!
