Kernal Peanuts Ltd. is the largest peanut grower in Canada. It is owned and operated by Ernie and Nancy Racz of Vittoria, Ontario. The company is situated on the Racz family farm on 393 Fisher’s Glen Road, about 1/2 mile south of Vittoria, Ontario only ten minutes from Port Dover, Simcoe or Delhi.
Peanuts are only grown in the southerly part of the Province of Ontario. With the decline in tobacco consumption in the 1980’s and 1990’s, Norfolk County farmers searched for an alternate cash crop to utilize their expertise and considerable existing capital investment.
The County possesses the right combination of sandy soil and temperate climate to produce a high quality crop.
