The festival that honors the arrival of spring and is celebrated with special foods in many cultures is Seder, particularly by Jewish communities during Passover. This festival marks the beginning of spring and entails a ceremonial meal featuring symbolic foods like matzah and bitter herbs. Families gather to retell the Exodus story, cherishing both cultural heritage and seasonal renewal. Similar celebrations like Holi in India also emphasize springtime, joy, and the vibrant colors associated with new beginnings.
