Native American leader Squanto, a member of the Patuxet band of the Wampanoag, played a crucial role in helping the Pilgrims learn agricultural techniques, such as planting corn, beans, and squash. This assistance was vital for the Pilgrims' survival during their early years in America. The collaboration between the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag led to the first Thanksgiving celebration in 1621.
The Wampanoag Native Americans taught the Pilgrims how to plant corn using a method called the "Three Sisters" technique, which involved planting corn, beans, and squash together in the same mound. This sustainable agricultural practice helped the Pilgrims grow a successful corn crop.

The Wampanoag Indians played a crucial role in the survival of the Pilgrims during their early years in North America. They taught the Pilgrims essential agricultural techniques, such as how to cultivate corn, beans, and squash, which were vital for their sustenance. Additionally, the Wampanoag, led by Chief Massasoit, established a peace treaty with the Pilgrims that facilitated cooperation and trade between the two groups. This partnership was instrumental in helping the Pilgrims endure their first harsh winters.
The Pilgrims did share their food with the Wampanoag, but not Pumpkin Pie because that recipe was not yet invented. Corn was part of the meal as one of the main dishes.
