In 1621, the Pilgrims at Plymouth Colony harvested a successful crop that included corn (maize), beans, and squash, which are often referred to as the "Three Sisters." They also gathered other crops such as pumpkins and various fruits. This harvest was significant as it marked the first Thanksgiving celebration with the Wampanoag people, who helped the colonists learn how to cultivate the land effectively. The successful harvest was crucial for the survival of the colony during its early years.
