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.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
