Establish Harvest Day as a national bank holiday.

We request the Government officially designate a Harvest Day as a bank holiday. This would close businesses and government offices. We think it would promote family gatherings and community celebrations of harvests and foster a spirit of gratitude and support for those in need.

We believe Harvest Day would reflect the importance of agriculture and gratitude, and that a national holiday would recognize farmers' contributions, promote sustainable practices, and encourage community service. This day could strengthen community bonds and appreciation for food security, enriching our society overall.
