Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee all have lots and lots of basically fallow land. It hasn’t been farmed in years and is now over grown or in pasture.

If there were a profitable crop...... it could be brought to production.

Alabama is 73% forested and forests are growing at a million acres a year.

Lots of that "fallow land" in Virginia's Piedmont region(s) has only a few inches of soil on it.

For the most part it's good for growing tourists.
