autumn harvest
Seasonal crop collection
The autumn harvest is the gathering of crops in fall, when most agricultural products reach maturity.
The phrase evokes images of abundance—pumpkins, apples, grain—and the culmination of a growing season: The autumn harvest was bountiful this year.
It carries connotations of preparation for winter and traditional celebrations like Thanksgiving.
