New England Colonies
The Middle Colonies (New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey) enjoyed natural harbors, excellent fishing and whaling, iron ore in the mountains, timber, and good soil and growing season for wheat, rye, and other crops.
Colonies along the Atlantic coast of North America, particularly New England, were significant producers of timber. The abundance of forests in regions like Maine and Massachusetts allowed for large-scale logging, which supplied wood for shipbuilding, construction, and export. Additionally, the middle colonies, such as New York and Pennsylvania, also contributed timber resources. This timber industry played a crucial role in the economic development of the colonies.
Major products sent from the middle colonies to the other colonies were timber and textile products
