Sha'ar Efraim, Agricultural moshav in Lev HaSharon Regional Council, Israel.
Description
Sha'ar Efraim is an agricultural settlement spread across flat terrain at about 42 meters elevation in the Lev HaSharon region. Residential blocks sit alongside cultivated farmland and communal spaces where residents gather throughout the day.
History
The settlement was founded in 1953 as part of Israel's push to develop rural areas and support agricultural growth following independence. This post-independence expansion shaped how the entire region developed.
Culture
The community here values hands-on farming and gathers regularly for shared meals and seasonal celebrations that bring neighbors together. These everyday rituals reflect the cooperative spirit that defines life in the settlement.
Practical
The settlement connects to nearby communities through local roads and having a car makes exploring the area much easier. The flat landscape allows you to drive and navigate smoothly between the different neighborhoods and farmland sections.
Did you know?
Farmers here sell fresh produce directly from their fields, keeping alive the original cooperative trading methods from when the settlement started. This direct sales approach shows how the founding principles remain woven into daily economic life.
