We have created a picnic basket brimming with the authentic goodness of pure, wholesome farm-fresh food. Capture the flavours of the ancients and enjoy the spirit of the times with home-baked whole meal pita, authentic olive oil, freshly made artisan olives, and hyssop seasoning ground by hand, together with soft labane goat cheese and local fruit jams.
Freshly prepared just this morning, the pita was baked in the Village Bakery using nutritious whole wheat flour.
The labane goat cheese comes directly from the goats grazing in the pasture; scrumptious on pita with a drizzle of olive oil mixed with hyssop seasoning.
The artisan olives come from an adjacent farm, and the olive oil is a high-quality oil from the nearby Eliad farms. Or perhaps you made it yourself during the Olive Oil Experience!
The fruit jam is prepared in a nearby village, using fruits unique to our climate and this region of Israel.
Every bite of your Picnic in a Basket supports local farmers and industries!
Not only is the food delicious and locally sourced, but ALL the disposable utensils and bowls are eco-friendly and 100% biodegradable.
Collect your basket at the Village Bakery and you’ll easily find the perfect spot by a picnic table shaded by trees, surrounded by birdsong, with a vista of pomegranate trees.
Depending on the time of year, take part in a traditional wheat harvest, make wine in our old-fashioned grape press, or press olives into fine olive oil using the oldest working olive press in Israel!
Other activities available year-round include a guided tour of the village, building with cob, or our unique Lantern Tour, under starry skies and moonlight!
