Harvest Festival celebrates the time of year when crops have been gathered from the field and people can reflect and show gratitude for the food they have.
Celebrating harvest dates long into British history, to a time when farmers would give thanks for a good harvest.
Many of you learn about harvest time at school, and collect food for those in need in your local community.

Some of you might have a special assembly, go to church or collect food parcels to give out.
The festival is usually celebrated on the Sunday nearest to the Harvest Moon.
