Delhi, Ontario is a small town in Norfolk County. The town can trace its roots back to founding in the 19th century. Since then, Delhi has a legacy as one of Ontario’s main centres for tobacco growth, but the industry itself has started to fade in the area. Today, Delhi is home to about 4,200 people and has a nice mix of local business, shops, and restaurants to serve its residents.
