The goodness of the Land... some of the seven species - pomegranates, grapes and dates, all within the parameters of moshav (village) Aviel






Some local neighbors have come to visit, chomping on a bush in front of our house.


Our move to Moshav Aviel has been a most exhilarating experience, as the valley is full of groves of olive, pomegranate, persimmon, and apricot trees, as well as rows of grapevines. Surrounding the area the hills are forested with oak trees. Here are some pictures to whet your appetite.
