harvest queen
Fall festival monarch
Harvest queen is a young woman chosen to preside over harvest festival celebrations, typically in rural communities.
She may ride on a float, wear a crown, and represent the community at agricultural fairs.
The title echoes older traditions honoring the season's abundance.
