    Farmers in Upper Canada preserved fruits and vegetables through pickling and drying, made jam and jellies, and stored food in root cellars. They also sold excess produce to general stores and raised cows for meat and milk. Wheat was the main crop and source of income, and within a year of arriving, settlers planted crops and built their first barn. Aboriginal people taught settlers techniques like crop rotation to enrich the soil and planting the three sisters - corn, beans, and squash - together for mutual growth support.
