Unlike many towns, the Barge Canal used the route of the Erie Canal.

| Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor posted The relatively flat lands and river valleys that became the canal route were equally well suited to farming in New York. Grain, apples, hops, celery, root crops, and specialty products like peppermint oil manufactured from mint were among the top crops produced and shipped along the canal in the 1800s. Though agricultural products are no longer transported on the canal, farming continues to shape the landscape, economy, and local flavor of the canalway corridor. 📸: Medina Apple Yard |
