Poinsett County is located in Northeast Arkansas and was formed in 1838. The county seat is Harrisburg and the largest city is Trumann. The County has a rich history and several local spots are listed on the National Registery of Historic Places.

Many factories and small business are located in our cities. For recreation, you will find great fishing at Poinsett Lake and State Park or one of our many fishing holes. Hunting is also popular in the area - especially duck hunting. Crowley's Ridge runs through the center of the county. To the east and west of the Ridge you will find rich, flat farmland. Arkansas State University has a Technical Center in Marked Tree and Waldenburg is famous for it's barbeque. There is something here for everyone.
