The History of Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving Day was first celebrated at the Plymouth Plantation in 1621. The Pilgrims from England had celebrated their successful growing season by inviting the Native Americans to a harvest treat. The feast lasted for 3 continued days! From then on, the day is observed as Thanksgiving, as the Americans thank the Almighty God for all his blessings throughout the year. People enjoy great meals with their friends and family that often include turkey, potatoes, pumpkin pie, and other delicious vegetable dishes.
