TUVAL —YOUNG-AT-HEART KIBBUTZ

A lively contingent of twenty young South Africans arrived in in February — half are ollm, the other half students. All are Bogrei Habonlm. The young olim went straight to Kibbutz Tuval, a new settlement in the western Galil. where they were given a rousing welcome by all the members -the Anglo-Saxons including the twenty S. African olim already living there, and the Israeli-born alike. Tuval, perched on a rocky, windblown height, a real challenge to young idealists, celebrated its first birthday in January, 1982. Those who compare the fledgling kibbutz in its earliest days with the well-organized and fast-developing settlement of today, are impressed at the progress made in so short a time. This is indeed halutziut in the true Zionist spirit, in this instance made all the more inspiring by the fact that today's settlers represent the first Jews to come and live in this particular area of the Galil in almost one thousand years! Kibbutz Tuval, located in the Tefen Development Area in Western Galilee, is a few kilometres from . Its present economy is based on the growing of spices and vegetables, the rearing of chickens and the export of hothouse plants. GREENTOURS oniona T R A V E L & T O U R S J i n " / ! ! n i U ' O )
