Overview
Harbel is a town in Margibi County, Liberia, located along the Farmington River about 24 km (15 mi) from the Atlantic coast. The town was established in the 1920s following the development of the Firestone rubber concession and became the center of one of the world’s largest natural-rubber plantations. The name "Harbel" is a portmanteau formed from the names of Harvey S. Firestone and his wife Idabelle Firestone, reflecting their role in the early development of the settlement.
