When the settlers first arrived at Maryland, they believed it to be just suitable for living. In reality, as they would soon find out, it was so much more. With a mixture of rolling hills, and low, flat grounds, combined with a perfect climate, Maryland became a farmer's dream.
Much of the colony of Maryland is made from the rolling hills of the Appalachian Mountains, which are perfect for animal domestication and make a big market out of beef and dairy. The other part of the colony is fertile flat land. While the major landmark of the Chesapeake Bay flows inland, it creates ground perfect for tobacco farming. The other parts of the flat grounds, called the Piedmont Plateau, is used to ranch and grow rice. Overall the geographic conditions create a perfect area to perform different types of farming and domesticating.
The climate in colonial Maryland is subtropical, with four different seasons. It rains the perfect amount of times to naturally water the crops so you don't have to. Be warned, however, the mountains do get a bit cold in the winter. All in all, Maryland's weather is perfect for planting year-round and seasonal crops.
