Should we, as Adventists, take part in the Harvest Festival celebrations?

Here's a little information from the internet:

"As the name suggests, Harvest Festival is celebrated around harvest time. More specifically Harvest Festival coincides with the Harvest moon, the full moon that occurs closest to the autumn equinox. Harvest Festival in Britain is usually celebrated on the Sunday nearest to this date."

"The Harvest Festival tradition pre-dates Christianity and dates back to the pagan times and the name derives from the Old English word Haerfest meaning ‘Autumn’."

"In Britain, successful harvests have been celebrated since pagan times and many traditions have originated around this time. The first cut sheaf of corn was offered to the fertility gods to guarantee a good harvest the following year. The last patch of corn standing in the fields (sometimes called the ‘mell’) was thought to contain the ‘spirit of the corn’, and cutting it was usually accompanied by an animal sacrifice – often a hare caught hiding in the corn. However, cutting the mell was thought to bring bad luck to the person who cut it, so workers would try to avoid it. In some counties the mell was cut by farm hands throwing their sickles at it, in others workers would take it in turns to be blindfolded and sweep their sickle to and fro until it was cut."

"These traditions continued in a slightly different form after Christianity arrived in Britain. The sacrificial offering was replaced by a straw hare made from the last sheaf of corn, to represent the continuity of the spirit. Eventually this led to the creation of plaited ‘corn dollies’, symbolising the goddess of the grain. These had a place of honour at the harvest supper, and then were hung from the farmhouse rafters until the next year."
