The highly productive and environmentally friendly farms we help create and redesign:
- Focus on affordable and proven technologies and techniques that enable small-scale farmers to increase the quantity of yields and quality of crops in short time frames
- Integrate and introduce high-value crops, herbs, and medicinal plants suited to local conditions
- Rely on biological diversity and provide food and nutritional security to farmers, communities, and markets
- Enhance resilience to climate challenges and changes
- Optimally utilize, integrate, and recycle resources, water, and renewable energies
- Enable the conservation and rehabilitation of soils and the surrounding natural ecosystems

- Design and implement with our local co-trainers and training participants low-cost, easy to maintain, and replicable model farms at the community levels
- Conduct detailed surveys and analyses of the entire agricultural value chain at the regional, national, and global levels
- Engage in extensive consultations with relevant stakeholders at every phase
- Create close partnerships with local organizations and entrepreneurs
- Closely collaborate with a network of Israeli and international partner organizations
- Conduct entrepreneurship, business management, agritourism, nature-based crafts, and practical agricultural workshops enabling the creation of income-generating businesses that thrive side by side with farming
