Yes, the Rhode Island colony had an abundance of timber, particularly due to its extensive forests. The availability of wood resources was crucial for shipbuilding and construction, which were significant industries in the colony. Timber was also used for fuel and various other purposes, contributing to the colony's economic development. The rich Natural Resources of Rhode Island made it an important location for both trade and settlement during the colonial period.
