[edit] Landmarks

Harbine has a tall Co-Op grain elevator.

Harbine had, at one time, excellent pheasant and quail hunting, and the area attracted hunters from around the United States. After approximately 1995, modern farming techniques, the decrease of natural habitat, and the increase in predators, (along with a decrease of predator hunters), led to a sharp decline in the number of upland game birds available to hunt. By 2008, the pheasant and quail population had begun to undergo a slow recovery process.
