Most Christians celebrate a "Harvest Festival" in their churches at the end of the harvest season to thank God for his bounty and to celebrate the successful bringing in of the harvest. These celebrations may be followed by a "Harvest Supper'.

Hindus celebrate "Pongal" in January each Year, the Jews "Sukkot" in September or October and the Buddhists celebrate Harvest Festivals at various times of the year depending on the country. Strangely, Muslims do not appear to have any specific festival to thank God for a bountiful harvest.

"Thanksgiving" is often used in North America for the Christian Festival and in England sometimes one finds the old fashioned name of "Harvest Home".
