Olesh

Olesh stands in the Sharon plain region, featuring residential areas surrounded by cultivated fields at 35 meters above sea level.

The settlement began in 1949 with Romanian immigrants, receiving its name from the chicory plants growing abundantly in the surrounding area.

Families in this agricultural community maintain strong connections through regular gatherings, joint farming activities, and shared community facilities.

The moshav provides agricultural infrastructure and residential services while maintaining direct road connections to major urban centers in central Israel.

During the late 1990s, Olesh doubled its physical size through an expansion plan, transforming the original settlement pattern.
