人们在每年11月的第四个星期四欢庆感恩节。庆祝传统的传统最早来自庆丰收的活动。不论是1620年从英国跨海来美洲的清教徒，还是他们遇见的美洲印第安人，他们对盛大的丰收表示感激都已形成习俗，成为各自文化的一部分。

A three-day harvest celebration held in 1621 in Plymouth Colony (part oftoday’s Massachusetts) is generally considered to be the first AmericanThanksgiving. The Pilgrims had arrived the year before on the ship TheMayflower. They hadn’t brought enough food, and it was too late to plant the colony died during the winter of 1620–1621. In the spring, localWampanoag Indians taught the colonists how to grow corn (maize) and othercrops, and helped them master hunting and fishing. They also showed thecolonists how to cook cranberries, corn and squash.

1621年在普利茅斯殖民地(Plymouth Colony)，即今天的马萨诸塞州(Massachusetts)，人们举行为时三天的丰收庆典活动，一般被视为美洲的第一个感恩节。前一年，英国清教徒们乘坐“五月花”号(The Mayflower)抵达美洲大陆。他们没有带足够的粮食，重新种庄稼又太晚。1620至1621年冬，这个殖民地的一半人口不幸丧生。到了春天，当地万帕诺亚格部落的印第安人(Wampanoag Indians)向外来移民介绍如何种植玉米和其他庄稼，并帮助他们学会狩猎和捕鱼。他们还教他们如何烹制越橘、玉米和南瓜。

The colonists had bountiful crops in the fall of 1621. They invited theirWampanoag benefactors to feast on wild turkeys, duck, geese, fish andshellfish, corn, green vegetables and dried fruits. Wampanoag Chief Massasoitand his tribe brought venison.

1621年秋，移民们大获丰收。他们邀请当地万帕诺亚格部落的印第安族恩人前来就餐，食物十分丰盛，有野火鸡、鸭、鹅、鱼虾贝、玉米、蔬菜和干果。部落酋长马萨索伊特(Massasoit)及部落成员则带着鹿肉前来赴宴。

Harvest festivals became a regular affair in New England. Thanksgiving wasobserved on various dates in the states until 1863, when President AbrahamLincoln proclaimed the last Thursday in November as the national Thanksgivingholiday. In 1941, President Franklin Roosevelt signed a law fixing Thanksgivingon the fourth (not always the last) Thursday in November.

丰收庆典逐渐成为新英格兰地区的固定节日。1863年前，各州往往在不同日子庆祝感恩节。1863年，林肯(Abraham Lincoln)总统宣布11月份的最后一个星期四为全国感恩节。1941年，罗斯福(Franklin Roosevelt)总统签署法律，将感恩节确定为11月的第四个星期四(因为第四个星期四不一定总是最后一个星期四)。
