ââ¯William Strachey. The Starving Time at Jamestown in the Colony of Virginia was a period of starvation during the winter of 1609â1610 in which all but 60 of 214 colonists died. The colonists, the first group of whom had originally arrived at Jamestown on May 14, 1607, had never planned to grow all of their own food. Their plans depended upon trade with the local Powhatan to supply them with food between the arrivals of periodic supply ships from England.
