Kfar Monash, Agricultural moshav in Hefer Valley, Israel.
Description
Kfar Monash is an agricultural settlement in central Israel where farming forms the backbone of daily life. The village spreads across land devoted to citrus orchards, greenhouse flower cultivation, and poultry operations.
History
Jewish servicemen from Australia founded the settlement in 1946 and named it after General Sir John Monash, an esteemed military leader. The founding reflected a broader effort to develop agricultural communities in post-war Israel.
Culture
The settlement operates on a cooperative farming model where residents share equipment and work together on agricultural projects. This shared approach shapes how people live and interact daily.
Practical
The settlement sits roughly 15 kilometers northeast of Netanya in flat terrain and can be reached by car from the main road. As a working agricultural community, visiting is not always convenient without prior arrangement.
Did you know?
In 1962, archaeologists discovered a hoard of over 800 metal objects from the Early Bronze Age on the land. This collection of weapons, tools, and copper items revealed that the area had been occupied thousands of years before the modern settlement.
