Regional community and harvest festivals have been held across various locations in Germany.

In North Rhine-Westphalia, events included the 2nd Erntedank-Familientag at the Mullewapp experience farm in Wadersloh, featuring a harvest thanksgiving mass and family programming. In Wulfen, the annual Flachsmarkt was held at the Heimathaus, which included the presentation of the ‘Mergensche Stein’, a historical boundary stone dating to 1564.

Subsequent celebrations focused on potato festivals. In Wülfrath, the annual Kartoffelfest included a potato weighing competition and the 37th Wülfrather potato peeling championships.
