How does winter happen?
In Greek mythology, Demeter is the goddess of harvest. Her daughter is Persephone. Hades is the god of the underworld and he kidnapped Persephone. To make a long story short, there was an agreement made between Hades and Demeter to share Persephone. When Persephone is with Hades, Demeter is so sad that nothing will grow and that is why winter happens.
Why was Demeter's daughter stolen from her?
Demeter's daughter, Persephone, was taken from Hades because even he thought she was so beautiful that he kidnapped her to be co-ruler of the underworld. But Demeter loved her daughter so much, but Persephone knew that if you eat any food from the underworld, you must stay there, so she accidentally ate 6 pomegranate seeds. Because of that she had to return to Hades for 6 months, which in some legends is Fall and Winter. Demeter didn't care for the crops when Persephone was gone, because she was too sad. So that is a myth why Fall and Winter don't bring crops as well as Spring and Summer.
