We have dairy farms, sheep farms, goat farms, and all kinds of grain and produce farms in the municipality of Trent Hills, but something new will be arriving in 2015. Ontario's first crop of Pacific White shrimp. Paul Cocchio and his wife Tracy, daughter Jill a marine insurance broker, and Brad a cheesemaker at nearby
Empire Cheese are expected to harvest their first crop of shrimp in 5 months.
