== History == Harvest was part of the Cherokee lands until about 1810. It had been a settled community for many thousands of years prior to this. Many families who formed the older settlement population are part Cherokee Indian. Later, a railroad was extended south from Fayetteville, Tennessee to the community of Capshaw 5 miles (8 km) southwest of present day Harvest. This railroad went bankrupt in the economic troubles that lead to the[Great Depression of the 1930s. Today, Old Railroad Bed Road runs along the old track bed. On April 3, 1974 during the Super Outbreak tornado event, two violent tornadoes including one F5 struck the community within 30 minutes of each other. Most of Harvest, along with nearby communities such as Tanner was destroyed. 50 people were killed by the tornadoes.
