Why is fruit part of Kwanzaa celebrations?

To show that the harvest has been good is the reason for including fruit when celebrating Kwanzaa.

Specifically, the crops are one of the seven symbols of Kwanzaa. The other six symbols are the corn, the gifts, the seven candles of unity, self-determination, collective responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith; the special candle holder called the kinara; and the unity cup.
