Kidron

Kidron is a moshav in the Brenner Regional Council near Gedera situated at about 51 meters above sea level. The settlement spreads across farmland where individual farmers manage their own plots within the cooperative community structure.

The settlement was founded in 1949 by Jewish immigrants from Yugoslavia and later expanded by settlers from Romania. It was established on land that previously belonged to the village of Qatra.

Residents maintain farming traditions and gather regularly for community events that shape local social life. These occasions show how agriculture and community bonds remain central to daily life here.

The moshav provides its residents with agricultural facilities and communal resources that allow combining farming with other professional work. Visitors can walk through the settlement and experience how a cooperative community is organized.

The name Kidron refers to the Kidron Valley and connects the modern settlement to biblical geography of the region. The moshav sits near the Tel Nof Airbase, showing how civilian settlements and military facilities coexist in this area.
