First Feast: Thanksgiving's Predecessor

Thanksgiving - our annual festival of sharing amongst family and friends. A feast of favorite foods and comradery originated to memorialize the appreciation and remembrance of two diverse groups. We know the story of that chilly day in the Fall of 1621 when the Pilgrims of the Mayflower and those indigenous came together to share a meal. But before this, there was a predecessor. Lost in the annals of history is a story of a similar meal shared amongst adventurers and escapists. A meal shared by those from the land of the Crowne and others native to a land of untouched valleys and forests. A land they called home. This event has a different viewpoint. Found within these pages are the remembrances and adventures leading to that meal as re-told generationally by the surviving few. Recorded on these pages is that event - that First Feast.
