    The middle colonies were called the breadbasket colonies, because there was an abundance of arable land and fertile soil. There were also natural harbors around the middle colonies, which made it easy for them to trade with other colonies, and because of large numbers of immigrants coming from continental Europe which made the breadbasket colonies ethnically and religiously diverse, compared to the other sets of colonies.
