Based on the fact that we don't see adults in the air temples- only elders and children, I'd say the key here is in the "nomad" part. They grow up at the temples as children, free to come and go at will- since Aang goes wandering all the time, even young children must have been allowed liberty of movement- and as they get older, they spend more and more time wandering as nomads. Not sure how'd they be agrarian if they were nomadic, though-most nomads LIVE of meat (I'd guess they plant fruit trees all over the place, and eat as they go).
