Yes, Virginia was known for growing indigo during the colonial period, particularly in the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

While Virginia's indigo production played a role in its agricultural history, it was not as dominant as tobacco.

Economic shifts and resistance to colonial rule ultimately contributed to the industry's downfall.
