harvest time
Crop gathering period
Harvest time is the season when crops are gathered, typically late summer through autumn.
The phrase evokes agricultural rhythms and abundance—a period of reaping what has been sown.
Figuratively, harvest time suggests any moment when efforts finally yield results: After years of building the business, harvest time had arrived.
