Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a holiday primarily celebrated in the United States and Canada to give thanks for the harvest and blessings of the past year. In the U.S., it is observed on the fourth Thursday of November, while in Canada, it falls on the second Monday of October. Traditionally, families gather for a festive meal that includes turkey, stuffing, and other dishes. The holiday has roots in early colonial history, commemorating a 1621 feast shared between Pilgrims and Native Americans. Today, it serves as a time for gratitude, family bonding, and community gatherings.
