Gamliel Farm’s Fresh Dates & Figs

My husband Avishai and I are committed to our land. Since the war, Avishai has been on reserve duty, leaving me to manage the farm and family. We aim to share fresh Israeli produce and deepen our connection to the land.

Micro lending, Macro Impact

For 15 years, our farm has cultivated Medjool dates and figs, a reflection of our commitment to Israel’s agriculture and its strategic importance. The war and Avishai’s reserve duty have strained our operations, highlighting the need for support. This loan will not only help a reservist and his family but also strengthen the agricultural sector by enabling us to build a direct-to-consumer platform, connect with supporters, and sustain our farm during challenging times.

My business - My spark

As a married couple and second-generation farmers, we chose to continue our family's legacy because we feel a deep connection to the land and its importance in building Israel’s resilience. Farming is more than a job for us; it’s our way of contributing to the country and our community. Even with the challenges of war and Avishai’s long reserve duty, our love for the farm and the land motivates us every day.

A few more words

We are Avishai and Atara, we are proud farmers in the Jordan Valley. Working the land isn’t just a job; it’s a calling. The soil of Israel connects us to our heritage and our future. With your help, we can continue cultivating the land that we love and sharing its bounty with the world.
