Did you know Ontario's climate and soil are ideal for growing soybeans? In fact, Ontario's soybean harvest is a big reason why Canada is one of the top producers of the protein-packed bean. In just one year, the amount of soy harvested in this country could make over ten billion blocks of tofu.

Jeff Barlow runs a soy farm in Binbrook, Ont. Since 1843, his family has cultivated the same plot of land he works today. Every year, he produces more than a million kilograms of soybeans. Barlow hopes the booming soy industry will help continue his family's farming legacy for the next 150 years.
