Hareli is celebrated mainly by the farming community in the month of Shravan. The farmers worship their farm equipment and cows. They place branches and leaves of Bhelwa tree in the fields and pray for a good crop and also hang Neem branches at the main entrance of their homes to prevent seasonal diseases. It is also the time when Baigas or traditional medical practitioners teach and evaluate their disciples. During this festival children play Gedi, when they walk on Bamboos and take part in the gedi race.
