Clark tells his family about the great Harvest Festival in Smallville. It was a tradition that his mother continued to work on even after he moved away. And it was about giving back to those that needed it. Martha would help run the festival and everyone loved her. But neither Jonathan nor Jordan want to go to the festivities.
