Agriculture
The foundation of Peterborough County. Our farms produce a wide variety of high-quality goods, from traditional crops and livestock to organic and specialty products. With a growing focus on sustainability, local food systems, and agri-innovation, this sector offers strong potential for growth and diversification. Agritourism is also gaining momentum, with farms opening their gates to visitors for on-site experiences, farm-to-table events, markets, and seasonal activities that connect people directly to the land and local food culture.
