New England was rocky, so farming was out of the question. However, its coastline was full of excellent harbors, and the land was covered in forests of conifer trees. The ocean had many fish and whales. The trees and harbors made it a very convenient place for ship building, and the ocean made it a easy location for whaling and fishing.
