Wow, I never even thought of tourism for Kusagakure. You're right, things like that would be good. The conservation aspect sounds cool too. I guess when you focus on just characters or jutsu for so long, you don't notice the locations and cultural things for it.

This did remind me that I do in fact have one cultural thing I thought up a whie back. The "Spring Festival". Basically just a standard festival you see in most anime with various food stalls and games. I hadn't officially written it into my story, but I had two times that it came up.

As for the plants, yes, I'd say they would have a fair amount of agriculture. Kazo's old teammate Avaki becomes a farmer with his family (and I think the Grass-nin that became one of the Pains was a farmer too), so that probably would be a big thing there. I'll have to think about the various plants that could be the big ones.

Thanks for the input. Though I'll probably use it more to flesh out the village details during earlier parts of my story, it will no doubt lead to some ideas for the next-gen era.
