Q: What was daily life like in Colonial Virginia? Housing Food Clothing

By the early 1700’s…. Once Jamestown was a successful colony, people starting moving off the main site and started new towns. Most towns were centered around new plantations where tobacco was grown. The new towns were in the Coastal Plains and the Piedmont regions.

Shirley Plantation…what do you notice???

Plantations were owned by wealthy planters…. Virginia’s economy depended on agriculture as it’s main sense of wealth. What was the crop that raised the most money??? Tobacco! It was a cash crop…$$$$

Do you think most people lived this way? The answer is NO…. Most white Virginians and Free African Americans made their living from the land as small farmers. Only a few owned plantations…just like today, only a few are super rich! (Think Hollywood)

Did they live in huge houses? No, most people lived in a one-room house with a dirt floor.

Did they wear beautiful clothes? Each household made their own clothes. Most was made of cotton, wool and leather.

Free African Americans lived just like most whites They owned businesses & property…. BUT they were denied most rights legally.

Enslaved African Americans Most worked tobacco, crops and livestock on the large plantations. They were fed by the plantation owners usually fish, corn, and some vegetables. They lived in homes that were also 1 room with dirt floors, but usually had more than one family in them. They wore simple clothing that was handmade.
