Sophiasburgh

One of the three original townships that formed Prince Edward County in the late 1700s, Sophiasburgh (pronounced Sof-EYE-ahs-burgh) ward is wrapped by the Bay of Quinte and connects to the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory via the Skyway Bridge. County Road 49 is the straight-shot connection between The County and larger roadways to Kingston, Ottawa, Montréal, and Québec – detours are recommended. Dotted with villages on Big Island, in Demorestville, Northport, and surrounding Fish Lake – this area is thriving with farmers, musicians, shoreline resorts, and entrepreneurs serving up everything local from wine, to jam, honey and even County kimchi.
