About Harvest

Located just northwest of Huntsville in Madison County, Harvest offers a quiet, laid-back setting with plenty of room to spread out. What started as a small farming and railroad community has steadily grown into a popular landing spot for newcomers looking for larger lots and newer subdivisions. You get scenic views of Capshaw Mountain alongside open fields, giving the area a relaxed countryside feel that still sits close to town.

Limestone Correctional Facility, Harvest, Alabama

Day-to-day life here revolves around the Madison County school system, anchored by Sparkman High School. Because Harvest is an unincorporated community, residents enjoy a slower pace along with lower property taxes than neighboring incorporated cities. Commuting is straightforward via Highway 53, putting major employment centers like Cummings Research Park, Redstone Arsenal, and downtown Madison within an easy 20-minute drive.
