Hariyali Teej Fetival is a Hindu festival celebrated during the month of Shravana and Badrapadha in north Indian states of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab and Nepal in various forms. During this festival women pray and fast to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi seeking their blessings.
There are three types of Teej that are being celebrated. They are Hariyali Teej, Kajari Teej, and Haritalika Teej.
Hariyali Teej: It is also called as Chhoti Teej or Shravan Teej. Hariyali Teej festival falls on Shukla Paksha Tritiya (i.e., on the third day of the bright fortnight)of the Shravana month of the Hindu calendar.
Kajari Teej: After 15days, Hariyali Teej is followed by Kajari Teej which is also called as Badi Teej.
Haritalika Teej: After 15days, Kajari Teej is followed by Haritalika Teej which falls on Shukla Paksha Tritiya(on the third day of the bright fortnight) of the Hindu month of Bhadrapada.
According to Hindu Mythology Goddess Parvathi had a rigorous fast of 108 years to prove her love towards Lord shiva. It is believed that Goddess Parvathi was born 107 times before she was born as Parvathi. After her 108th birth, Lord Shiva accepted Goddess Parvathi as his wife. Teej festival resembles the sacrifice of a wife to win the heart of her husband. As Goddess Parvathi was granted the reward of getting Lord Shiva as her husband after rigorous fast, newly married women do fasting for the well-being of their husband. Newly Married women visit their parents and return to their in-law's house with gifts to their in-laws and spouse, to strengthen the bonding between them. In some places, newly engaged women are gifted with saree and ornament by their in-laws as custom.

They swing joyfully on the swings fixed to branches of large trees singing songs related to this festival.
The word Hariyali Teej relates to greenery. So in some places, women wear green clothes and green bangles.
