Hardin County, Texas
.Hardin County is a county located in the southeastern region of the great state of Texas. Established in 1858, the county was named after the legendary Texas Revolutionary War hero, Augustine Blackburn Hardin. Covering an area of 894 square miles, Hardin County is bordered by Tyler, Jasper, Jefferson, Liberty, and Polk counties. Kountze serves as the county seat, and it is known for a rare combination of natural resources, opportunities for outdoor recreation, and cultural events.
In the early days, Hardin County was primarily inhabited by Native American tribes such as the Atakapa, Alabama, and Coushatta. European settlers arrived in the area by the late 1820s, largely as part of Stephen F. Austin's land grants from Mexico. The region saw a steady influx of settlers as the timber industry flourished in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Many farming communities were also established, primarily focusing on rice, cotton, and cattle.
Throughout its history, the economy of Hardin County has been driven by diverse industries like lumber, railroad, agriculture, and oil. The region has also been home to the Big Thicket National Preserve since 1974, which covers a significant portion of the county and offers various recreational opportunities such as hiking, camping, canoeing, and bird-watching.
Fun fact: Hardin County is the location of a very unique, biennial event called the "Texas State Championships & Regional Championship Barbecue Cook-off." This festival is held in Kountze, the county's seat, and features a competitive barbecue cook-off, live music performances, and arts and crafts vendors, attracting both local residents and tourists alike.
