Pardes Minkov, Agricultural heritage museum in Rehovot, Israel

The Pardes Minkov museum includes exhibits of traditional farming tools, irrigation systems, and documentation methods used in citrus cultivation during the early 1900s.

Zalman Minkov established the first citrus grove at this location in 1904, marking the beginning of Rehovot's agricultural development and economic growth.

The museum exhibits detail how immigrant farmers adapted their agricultural knowledge to local conditions while developing new techniques for citrus cultivation.

Visitors can participate in educational workshops about fruit cultivation, agricultural practices, and the processing methods used in citrus production.

The preserved bayara, featuring an original water well surrounded by walls, demonstrates the authentic irrigation infrastructure of early Israeli agriculture.
