Where did the Jamestown settlers get there food?

Jamestown survived its early years because of the aid given by the Indian chief called?
Powhatan
How did American Indians help the Jamestown colonists?
The question said "Native Americans" who helped the settlers. The Puritans occupied Indian lands in what is now Massachusetts. Jamestown was down in the southeast - Chesapeake Bay. The Virginia Indians who interacted with those setllers were part of the Powhatan Confederacy, a group of local tribes. It was a complex relationship between English and natives. The Powhatans did help, at first, in terms of farming practices, fishing and other forms of survival but the English settlers were violent and greedy for land from the beginning, causing conflicts.
What were the two wars fought in 1614 and 1644 between the English in Jamestown and the nearby Indian leader?
These are the Anglo-Powhatan Wars.
How did interaction and conflict between English settlers and Indians affect both parties?
Some sources, such as http://etext.lib.virginia.edu/etcbin/jamestown-browse?id=J1023 suggest that when the Europeans first settled in Jamestown, the relationship they had with the Powhatan Indians was very peaceful. The Indians helped them to settle by offering food such as Indian cakes and corn. Other sites, such as http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powhatan#History suggest that the violence started right away. Either way, there was violent interactions between the European settlers and the Powhatan Indians that led to mass murdering of both sides. Personally I would be more likely to believe the first link because it's a letter from Edward Maria Wingfield who was one of the very first to settle in Jamestown.
How did the Powhatan confederacy help Jamestown colonist?
The Powhatan Confederacy had an extensive trade network with other Indian tribes before Jamestown was settled. When the Jamestown settlers arrived, they traded with the colonists. The settlers traded their metal tools for food and furs.
