Best Answer

Largely because of her aspect as a Greek goddess of growing agriculture, grain, and bread. The myth of her daughter being Persephone, goddess of spring and Queen of the Underworld with Hades: his kidnapping of her daughter, and her search for Persephone and Persephone halving her year with Hades and Demeter -the seasons winter and spring respectively.
