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 Story of Seasons, developed by Victor Interactive Software and published by Natsume. It is 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 version featuring a female protagonist, Bokujō Monogatari Harvest Moon for Girl (牧場物語~ハーベストムーン~forガール?), was also released.

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.
