The Giants had to grow their beans in secret. Because men were taking the beans, creating portals, and conquering other worlds. They abused the portals. But they could have also told tales of their homeland. And lets assume perhaps the Aurthors, (like the Brothers Grimm)

heard of these tales and began to pen their versions into books.

One thing I had learned from movies like Pirates of the Caribbean is sailors and travelers love to tell tales. xD

And I like the above ideas ;D I believe the fairy tale characters came to Storybrooke from a past time.
