Description
small organic farm located in a primary location in the center of Israel and offers guests to enjoy on a daily basis a rare combination of Tel Aviv- jaffa city life, as well as countryside Israel
close to the beach, old jaffa and some other historical sites. 15 minute bus ride from the center of Tel Aviv, 15 minutes bicycle ride from Jaffa beach and 5 min walk to the train station.
However farming is not easy or romantic as much as sounds, even more so organic farming- it's very often dirty, demanding and the only after long processes it's becoming rewarding and fulfilling and so some of you will not even get to experience the entire circle.
we grow seasonal kinds of vegetables and various kind of trees, as mango, papaya, avocado, citrus, pecan and annon,together with few chickens and make art of the state organic compost.Types of help and learning opportunities

Help
I hear many people speaking highly about looking to get new experiences, getting out of the comfort zone , doing something different than their day today live, supporting sustainability, organic farming, caring about the environment, recycling and the next generations.
yet in the reality very few people are willing to sacrifice part of their vacation to support all that.
If you looking for the easiest stay, better than any other hotel, this is definitely not here.
If you think it's your one and only time in Israel ever ,please don't come, we look for people who want to make second family and come back again and not just guests.
