The everyday life of the puritans was a very busy one. They worked from sunrise to sunset. They believed that empty hand is a work of the devil. Most of the puritans farmed and fished in the colony. Their lives focused on religion and in God's teachings and plans. Puritans attend church as it was mandatory. The church made decisions and rules, which the puritans followed as they focused on living simply and peaceful lives.
In the 1800s they used steel plows and other new forms of technology. The Steel Plow was used for farming to break up tough soil without soil getting stuck to it.
