Around here definitely potatoes and root vegetables.
There is a tomato greenhouse operation in Hearst called "La Maison Verte" that has done quite well. Since the Mennonites have moved to near Matheson, they have been growing types of squash and some other things. I think I remember them selling varieties of lettuce too.
Of course, further South in Temiskaming District, they can grow quite a bit more. The clay belt areas up here are pretty good for growing but there aren't many people interested in agriculture. There are many more farms across the border in Quebec's Abitibi-Témiscamingue region.
