The land is fertile and readily tilled but the majesty of Pennsylvania Agriculture rests in the hands of the Pennsylvania Dutch Farmers who for centuries have been good stewards of the land. This trait is not limited to the Quakers or the Amish or the Shakers or the Mennonites. It is a shared love for the land which must be respected and honored beyond culture.

The middle colonies had milder temperatures than the northern colonies. Also, the land was suitable for growing many more crops. The land in the northern colonies was hard and rocky, but the land in the middle colonies was less rocky and the soil was more fertile.
Virginia was located in the middle colonies, or the "Bread Basket". They had large areas of arable land to plant on. In terms of location, the colony encompassed most of the land that is now the states of Virginia, West Virginia and Kentucky.
Vermont is not one of the original 13 colonies because it wasn't English land! It was actually French and the name Vermont means Green Mountain in French.
The land in the New Hampshire colony was generally considered to be challenging for agriculture due to its rocky terrain and harsh climate. However, it was also rich in natural resources, such as timber and fish, which supported industries like shipbuilding and fishing. While farming was difficult, many settlers adapted by focusing on trade and resource extraction. Overall, the land's mixed qualities shaped the colony's economy and lifestyle.
A colony run by individuals or groups to whom land was granted is typically known as a proprietary colony. In this type of colony, the land is controlled by one or more proprietors who have been granted the rights to establish settlements and govern the colony.
