Harvest Moon: Back to Nature (牧場物語～ハーベストムーン～, Bokujō Monogatari Harvest Moon?) is a video game in the farm simulation series Harvest Moon, developed by Victor Interactive Software. It is the only Harvest Moon game developed for the PlayStation, as well as the first Harvest Moon game for a non-Nintendo console. Characters from Harvest Moon 64 were transferred to be the characters in this game, although with new lifestyles, personalities, and relatives. A girl-oriented remake, Bokujō Monogatari Harvest Moon for Girl (牧場物語～ハーベストムーン～forガール?), was also developed, but until 2007 had not been released in English.
This game was later remade as the Game Boy Advance games Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town and Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town. In 2005 Harvest Moon: Back to Nature was coupled with the girl version and ported as Harvest Moon: Boy & Girl (牧場物語ハーベストムーン ボーイ＆ガール, Bokujō Monogatari: Harvest Moon Boy and Girl?) for the PlayStation Portable, although the box art and instructions portrayed it as a completely new game. In 2008, Marvelous Interactive released Harvest Moon: Back to Nature and Bokujō Monogatari Harvest Moon for Girl for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable via the PlayStation Network.

Famous quotes containing the words harvest and/or nature:
“The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.”
—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
“Art compares to nature like wine to the grape.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
