Adopt a Farmer

During non-Shemita years, growing viable produce is a challenging process that involves great financial risk for Israeli farmers. Covid-19 significantly exacerbated the financial hardships of these farmers due to lockdowns and other limitations. This is the situation in which farmers found themselves on the eve of the 5782 Shemita year. Clearly, the decision to keep Shemita this year was complex. Despite this, countless farmers in Israel are choosing to uphold the laws of Shemita and keep the laws that are connected to the Land of Israel. Help us support them!
