The Orange Garden

The Orange Garden: Turning heartbreak into a living legacySince October 7th, the image of Shiri Bibas and her two young children, Ariel and Kfir, has become a global symbol of innocence lost. Yet the Jewish spirit does not remain in grief, it answers sorrow by building. We seek to bring a true message of hope to the people of Israel, a national park that will stand as a symbol of life, unity, and renewal. A project born from the heart of the people. Join us in establishing The Orange Garden - a one-of-a-kind park in memory of the Bibas family and the children of October 7. This is our answer to darkness: a sanctuary of life, unity, and Israeli resilience. The Orange Garden in Migdal HaEmek, Spanning five acres of breathtaking landscape. Rises from sorrow to restore for all of us a place to breathe, to heal, and to hope. Not a monument of grief, but a living garden of love and life. The land is ready. Now it’s up to us 🧡 Visualization: “The Orange Garden” plan – Izy Blank Landscape Architects The municipality of Migdal HaEmek has granted the land and committed to maintaining and protecting the garden.
