When the leaves begin to fall, pumpkin-flavored foods can\u2019t be far behind. However, pumpkins aren\u2019t the only fruit that\u2019s ripe for picking in autumn. Farms and orchards burst with apples, pears, cranberries and other fruits just in time for Thanksgiving, which is no coincidence. The holiday gets its name from the tradition of showing gratitude and appreciation for a successful harvest. So, along with the turkey and stuffing, enjoy cranberry sauce, pumpkin or apple pie, and pear-glazed ham while dining with family and friends.<\/p>\n
