Yes, there were farmers in Jamestown in 1607, but their numbers were limited. The settlers initially focused on survival and establishing the colony, which included efforts to grow crops like tobacco. However, many of the early settlers were gentlemen and skilled laborers rather than experienced farmers, which made agricultural efforts challenging. Over time, the introduction of tobacco cultivation became a significant part of the colony's economy.
