Southern Colonies had slaves to do their work on the plantation, Middle Colonies had some slaves but they were kinda in the middle, while the New England Colonies had no slaves.

This is assuming you are discussing the English colonies. Generally, Africans were imported either from the Caribbean (former slaves brought over by the Spanish) or from West Africa either to work in the Caribbean (if they were brought over from Africa) to work in the sugar cane farms or to work in the English colonies (as Native Americans were not an adequate source for extra manual labor).
All work on and concerning the plantations depended on slave labors.

The Africans that were enslaved in the Southern Colonies were the main workforce because the settlers did not have the endurance or skills to do the work. Africans were strong, skilled, and were able to endure the climate better than the people who enslaved them.

The first slave arrived in the colonies in 1619 and was brought to work. As the colonies grew more slaves were needed to do the work.

Enslaved Africans were brought to the southern colonies to work on plantations due to a demand for labor in industries such as tobacco, rice, and indigo production. Enslaving Africans was seen as a way to meet this demand for labor and increase the profitability of these industries.
