Huh this raises a lot of questions. I think they were vegetarians too (or was that just Aang?) so they wouldn’t hunt or slaughter the sky bison. They probably wouldn’t plant crops in the mountains as nomads. Maybe there were very few of them and mountaintop gardens could sustain them? It seems kind of unfeasible though.
I demand a political economy of Air Nomad society.
There were only 4 tribes of them and each tribe occupied a temple complex the size of a small town so yeah I think their population was pretty small. They seemed to mostly eat fruit pies to I imagine they gathered fruit from tree (either that they tended or wild trees) and traded with other nations for cereals and other staple foods.

I mean the thing that makes the most sense is that air nomads were raiders who used to descend on other nations’ villages and steal their vegetables
Constantly terrorizing that one cabbage guy
