The Corn Bread Mafia is a group that originated in a rural central Kentucky county and was composed of Caucasian farmers. It was named the Corn Bread Mafia by federal authorities as the first organized group in the United States involved in a multi-state domestic cannabis cultivation and distribution network. This group shifted its growing operations to other states in the Midwest because of intensified marijuana suppression efforts within Kentucky. Members of the Corn Bread Mafia have cultivated cannabis on thirty farms in eight states including Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, and Wisconsin.
More than 75 members of this group have now been prosecuted and over 182 tons of marijuana has been seized.
