- Cornucopia
- Wheat is usually harvested during the fall. Wheat is used to make flour for bread.
- At Thanksgiving, we eat turkey, a bird that was available to people in the time of the first Thanksgivings. In England, they typically ate goose at the harvest time.
- The cornucopia is also known as the "horn of plenty." It represents the wealth and the bounty of the fall harvest.
