Life in Connecticut was harsh for most colonists but they managed to survive. The summers in Connecticut were mild but the winters were much colder than the English. They usually farmed like they grew corn, beans, squash, and apples. They also raised cattle for beef and milk. Shipbuilding, fishing, and whaling were also ways they make a living along the coast of Connecticut. They also hunted game, and wove the fabrics they needed.
