Answer:

Option: Rocky soil and small farms

Explanation:

The New England Colonies formed by the Puritans. The geography of the region cover coastlines, rocky soil, large trees, mountains, along with a harsh winter climate. The geographical condition allowed people to engage in economic activities including shipping, whaling, and fishing, while many of the colonists were merchants, blacksmith, artisans, traders, and furniture maker.
