Experimental
Orchard on Kibbutz Ketura
Virtual
TourA visit to our internationally acclaimed experimental orchard is an experience not to be missed. With over 250 different varieties of fruit trees and cacti, a walk through the orchard with one of our local experts will both open your eyes and tickle your palate.
Since 1974, Dr. Elaine Solowey, a founding kibbutz member, has been experimenting with desert agriculture. Time magazine recently featured her groundbreaking work in the cultivation of Tibetan medicinal herbs.
Ketura, located in the southern Negev, is a perfect spot for those looking for a family vacation or a group seminar in a safe, quiet corner of Israel. A trip to the experimental orchard can be planned as a one-hour stopover on the way to Eilat, a half-day experience including kosher meals or any option that suits the needs of the group.
