Fish, cattle, furs, iron, pigs, sheep, and wheat (that's mostly what I know)

Natural Resources of the middle colonies included good farmland, timber, furs and coal. Iron ore was a particularly important natural resource. The Middle colonies are often called the breadbasket colonies because they grew so many crops, especially wheat.
