Origin

Old English hærfest 'autumn', of Germanic origin; related to Dutch herfst and German Herbst, from an Indo-European root shared by Latin carpere 'pluck' and Greek karpos 'fruit'.

The meaning of harvest in Old English was ‘autumn’. Since early autumn was the season for the cutting and gathering in of ripened crops, this passed during the Middle Ages into ‘the process of gathering in crops’ and ‘the season's yield or crop’. The word harvest itself has ancient roots: it is related to Latin carpere ‘to pluck’ (see carpet) and Greek karpos ‘fruit’. See also autumn
