The land is full of rolling hills and wooded dales, this makes large scale cereal production impossible. However, the land is perfect for tree crops such as apples, pears, apricots and plums, as wells as nuts such as acorns, filberts, and walnuts. The wooded lands that dot the landscape, as well as the dense forests of the Hazelwood Wilds are ideal for foraging berries and mushrooms.
Lilybrook is best known for it's massive domesticated pigs, The Esairn Razorback. These swine are used both as meat, and beasts of burden, often replacing oxen in the pulling of carts and plows. The Imerylm goat is also a native breed, provide rich, fatty milk that is perfect for producing Imerchak, a soft blue cheese. Ducks and geese are plentiful in the marshy lowlands and around Moon Mirror Lake, and hunters will find great sport in hunting the giant boar that roam the Hazelwood Wilds. The many streams and rivers of Lilybrook make for great trout fishing, while Moon Mirror Lake has a wealth of pear h, eel, and pike in it's depth.
Mining isn't overly common in Lilybrook, although the few copper and zinc mines they have allows for a thriving brass industry. All of the many significant rivers allows for there to be a thriving lumber industry, harvesting oak, hazel, and cedar. Lilybrook cider is very popular, often flavoured with blackberries, pear, and plum.
