Probably much like Maryland and Virginia. Farming tobacco, grains, and cattle. Industries like milling, blacksmithing, and shipbuilding. Also like many other colonies Delaware would have had abundant lumber and fish resources...Merchants and traders were also likely to be seen everywhere. Manufactured and luxury goods would still have been largely imported from England.
