What does the goddess Demeter do?

Answer 1

Demeter is the Greek goddess of the harvest. When her daughter, Persephone, is in the Underworld with her husband Hades, lord of the dead, Demeter is in mourning and the plants die, creating winter. When Persephone returns to the Earth, Demeter rejoices and springtime occurs.

Answer 2

Demeter is the Greek goddess of agriculture, fertility, and grain. She is most notably known for being the mother of Persephone and for her association with the changing seasons due to the myth of Persephone's abduction to the underworld. Demeter is often worshiped for providing harvests and sustaining life through agriculture.
