;In 1620, the settlers, or pilgrims, they sailed to America the may flower, seeking a place where they could have freedom of worship.;Their first winter in the New World was difficult. They had arrived too late to grow many crops, and without fresh food, half the colony died from disease.;The following spring the Iroquois Indians taught them how to grow corn, a new food for the colonists. They showed them other crops to grow in the unfamiliar soil and how to hunt and fish.;In the autumn of 1621, bountiful crops of corn, barley, beans and pumpkins were harvested. The colonists had much to be thankful for, so a feast was planned. ;They invited the local Indian chief and 90 Indians.
