Kfar Zeitim

Located in northern Israel, Kfar Zeitim stands at 55 meters above sea level and extends across fertile lands surrounded by olive groves.

Kfar Zeitim was founded in 1950 by Jewish immigrants from Yemen who established their community on new agricultural settlements in the Lower Galilee region.

The Kfar Zeitim Yeshiva provides education for Ultra-Orthodox Jewish students, combining religious studies with practical training in computers, carpentry, and agriculture.

Residents of Kfar Zeitim benefit from direct road connections to Tiberias city, while maintaining their agricultural activities within the cooperative settlement structure.

Kurdish immigrants joined the original Yemenite settlers over time, creating a diverse community that maintains traditional farming practices in the Lower Galilee.
