North Carolinians spent a lot of their energy planting grains- mostly corn, wheat, and oats- for they had to feed ther families first before doing anything else. This was known as subsistence farming. To save on fencing, many farmers combined crops. Farmers also farmed cotton and with a spinning wheel, turned cotton, flax or wool into yarn. Since everyone had horses or mules, a blacksmith was needed to make shoes for the animals and repair iron tools.
