Harvest time brings thoughts of cornfields, apple cider, pumpkin patches and scarecrows.
Many communities around the world celebrate the harvest holiday which is also known as Thanksgiving. In Korea it is called Chu-Suk and in India it is known as Kerla Onam. In all of these counties, the harvest holiday is dedicated as a time to give thanks to their ancestors or to God for the harvest. This tradition is enjoyed by Hinus, Muslims and Christians alike. Because the scarecrow is thought to ward off predators that would take the harvest it is an important symbol.
