The region had and still has rich soil for farming a remnant of the Ice Age 12,000 years ago when glaciers dragged sandy loam from northern parts of Ontario and deposited along the shore of Lake Erie before the glacier melted and created Lake Erie. Apart from cash crops; the claim to fame for Norfolk County was tobacco. The leaf was farmed for well over 100 years and the area was Canada’s tobacco belt.
