Thanksgiving History

This holiday has its origin in the arrival of English pilgrims fleeing the Anglican Catholic Church. According to tradition, the pilgrims were welcomed by the Wampanoag Indians. They learned to sow corn, fish and hunt. As a token of gratitude, the settlers decided to organize a religious feast and invited the Indians who had helped them so much. In this way, this holiday is created, which in the US and in many parts of the world continues to be celebrated as a very important event for all of us. Therefore, we have brought you some ideas with honey to make your dinner much more original on Thanksgiving Day.
