Do Passover…

וְעָשִׂיתָ פֶּסַח

And do Shavuot…

וְעָשִׂיתָ חַג שָׁבֻעוֹת

And do Sukkot…

חַג הַסֻּכּת תַּעֲשֶׂה

(Deuteronomy 16:1,10,13)

The challahs that you see depicted are: A piece of challah matzah (for Passover); a bundle of wheat (Shavuot harvest); a lulav and etrog (what we shake under the sukkah on Sukkot).
