Police were called after a farmer came across four plots of cannabis while working in his field.
On July 30, members from the Huronia West Community Street Crime Unit (CSCU), as well as a uniform officer attended the plots in Springwater Township, about a two-hour drive north of Toronto.
Huronia West is a detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).
Police found 538 cannabis plants growing in four plots deep within the farmer’s land. The plants, described as “immature” were picked and destroyed.
The investigation is still ongoing.
The Huronia West OPP serves the Town of Wasaga Beach and the Townships of Springwater and Clearview.
In 2020, the township implemented a one year moratorium on cannabis production licences.
