Tangipahoa Parish covers 808 square miles in Florida Parishes, with approximately 134,000 residents and Amite as parish seat. The parish economy runs on Louisiana's leading sod-growing industry, strawberry farming around Ponchatoula, Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond, dairy farming throughout the parish, and healthcare anchored by North Oaks Medical Center. Tangipahoa Parish has been the heart of Louisiana's sod farming industry for over 50 years thanks to its sandy loam soil and ideal drainage. The parish was carved out of Livingston, St. Helena, St. Tammany, and Washington parishes in 1869.
