Matzuva's 75 Th Birthday This Month, New Year Matzuva's 75th Birthday this month, New Year for Trees, Pastures of Plenty and Agricultural Woes…Matzuva looks forward but also remembers it's past!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- T January 2015 - The winding road going down to the northern road past the gate on the perimeter road leads to the Matzuva cemetery, chicken runs and Matzuva Agriculture up to the barrier gate at the northern road that runs from Rosh Hanikra eastwards to the Upper Galilee Panhandle. Once again a walk down to the cemetery to lay yet another Matzuva veteran to eternal rest. Shmuel was born on 23.6.1921 in Germany a son to a proselyte family. He will be remembered by numerous volunteer guests and Ulpan students who worked with him in the avocado and citrus groves at Matzuva. He came to the then Mandatory Palestine in 1938 within the Youth Aliya scheme for displaced children. When he finally left Matzuva with his daughter Penina in 2010 he told of his life at a farewell evening in the Moadon. On arrival in the country he was sent to Kibbutz Ginegar but went on later to Matzuva. He was initially not accepted as a kibbutz member and consequently joined the British army. As he had experience as a tractorist he worked on heavy vehicles. During his service Shmuel managed to visit all the neighboring countries – Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Iran and later Cyprus. His service included the Jewish Brigade in the British army. After the war Shmuel returned to Matzuva and was accepted as a member. Later he said that he wasn''t accepted at first because they thought he was a little crazy character. At Matzuva Shmuel met and married Shoshana (a Holocaust survivor from Auschwitz) and had three children Itamar, Dudi and Penina. Shortly after his return he was arrested by the British on the infamous "Black Saturday" and was interned at Akko ז"ל Shmuel Nesher 23.6.1921-21.1.2015 jail and later to Latrun jail along with leading members of the Jewish community including Moshe Sharet who became the first foreign minister of the State of Israel. During Israel's War of Independence while Matzuva was isolated he was active in bringing food from Nahariya. He also served in the civil defense corps for many years. He was one of the first drivers of the Western Galilee Transport Cooperative until he came home to manage the avocado groves. He developed and improved the groves and set up "Shmuel Nesher's Hut" for the team of workers. In his spare time he painted in a studio he received from the kibbutz. Around his home he had a beautiful garden. But above all Shmuel was a family man who loved his wife and tended to her needs during her prolonged illness. As mentioned earlier in 2010 at an advanced aged he elected to be with his daughter's family. We will remember Shmuel as a modest person, a worker and artist. May his dear soul rest in everlasting peace. The Local Committee- This committee is responsible for the running of the entire community. Their discussions are now dealing with the educational activities held during 2014 and preparing the budget for 2015. They will hold discussions with the various sub-committees and hear their reports and requests for the year. Meanwhile, there is to be upgrading and renovation work of the playgrounds meeting required standards. The tennis court is also to be renovated and the tennis class will have to meanwhile use the basketball court. A Moadon (Clubhouse) agreement has been reached with the Kibbutz Committee regarding the usage of the moadon and will be managed by the municipal committee. Private functions will take place throughout the week but will be regulated not to disturb the peace of resident living in the vicinity. Agricultural Woes – 2015 brought with it a drastic change in the weather and this manifested itself in violent storms and welcome rain that on certain days we witnessed downpours that included sleet and hail. Edna Nathans the editor of the Matzuva newsletter interviewed Johnny Adjemi the manager of Matzuva Agriculture and enquired about any damage that had be made to the various fruit trees. Johnny as always was willing to put everyone into the picture. The interview was published in the last edition of the newsletter. "You Plan and sometimes, He who is above laughs……" (Matzuva Agriculture after the Storm) Edna: What's new with our agriculture? – What's happening?. Johhny: Due to the storm and the cold we had a lot of our fruit farm was damaged. We underwent low temperatures last year but this time the cold was very very strong – impregnating and flowing that affected nearly all our crops Bananas – The damage was particularly hard as only a third of the fruit had been harvested until now. This year the 'mother' and sprouting plants were the hardest hit but the bunches were not affected. Today, the banana plantation after this cold spell looks as if it has burnt. The fruit remaining on the trees will have to be harvested within the next 3 months and we hope the fruit will survive the weather that is still wintry and the expected 'hamsin' winds in April and May. We were on the threshold of receiving very good prices and it is now impossible to reach this potential. Already in 2013 the cold weather ruined vast areas of fruit throughout Western Galilee. We were obliged to renew fields based on early planning by replacing the damaged crops with new saplings. Intensive planting was performed in order that in March-April 2015 we could market this fruit at an anticipated good price. We are now estimating the extent of the damage and will receive basic reparation from the 'KANAT' Insurance Fund for Risks in Agriculture Avocado – The fruit was damaged and we are now engaged in a saving harvesting but not at full- steam. Neighboring villages have been hit a lot harder. We have very good prices for the close on 700 ton picked. We look forward to improved sales in the next three months. Litchi – the foliage is damaged and we hope to have fruit next year. Mango – This fruit was also 'burnt' being a very sensitive fruit. Pomegranates and persimmon are suitable for the Israeli winter and are doing well. Besides the above this year we planted cauliflower that has been hard hit. It was really very good as it is usually a strong plant and we have begun harvesting it but all vegetable prices run high and low from day to day. Unmarketable cauliflowers were distributed free to Matzuva residents last week. "Anyway", says Johnny, "there's always good with the bad!" Genesis 41:53 the "seven years of plenty" followed by the "seven years of famine" Well Matzuva has enjoyed a decade+ of plenty in agriculture and we hope the years of famine will not be visited upon Matzuva and Israel. The 50+ Cultural and Social Committee – This committee was formed in order to address the cultural and social needs of this age group that is no longer young and does not exactly fit in to the senior member's activities that are usually of a static nature. Unfortunately, as mentioned the senior group is dwindling in numbers and the over fifties need an outlet suited to their ages that run up to 75+. The 50+ committee members are Ingrid Ben-Shabbat, Orna Zeira, Ilana Chen, Max Nathans, Mirale Levi, Eli Freidman and Tamar Reuven. During the last year there have been 6 field trips, 3 lectures, New Year Party, Pesach pre-Seder night The field trips were a great success with only one being cancelled due to bad weather. A full busload of members participated in each trip and some who registered late missed out on some of the trips. Usually, a set menu lunch was served at a restaurant on the way. There plans afoot to hold an early seder event for this age group providing a person is prepared to arrange it. Furthermore, an idea is being aired of holding an evening beach party in the spring/early summer. Apparently, there is a preference to participate in activities organized by 50+ and this may have to some extent ramifications on the general community cultural activities. Obviously not every activity is suitable for all age groups together (Dr. Sharon Bial, sociologist). A feedback questionnaire is being prepared. All credit to the team of volunteers! Worth knowing that here something was created out of nothing! (interview with Nitzan Reuven, firstborn at Matzuva, about the project to erect a reconstruction site of Matzuva way back in 1940) Edna: Everyone here knows Nitzan, veteran members and newcomers, adults and kids – on a tractor or on a battery-driven buggy. He smiles and is down to earth telling a story connected to the kibbutz. To kindergarten toddlers he always asks "Do you want that I work with you in the kindergarten? – that's Nitzan! During the last few months he's been running around with a new sparkle in his eyes! He has a dream of a new project underway – he talks of it and enlists anyone who is able and willing to assist in it's realization! I invited Nitzan to talk about his project to readers of the kibbutz newsletter "Aleh Giv'a" and he willingly consented /Edna Nathans (editor of "Aleh Giv'a"). Nitzan: The subject of preserving everything that was created here has been on my mind and over the years I've rescued items such a wagons, ploughs, agricultural implements and have collected them up and preserved them.

The Israeli settlement of Pisgat Ze’ev lies beyond in East Jerusalem. This publication takes its point of departure from Fazal Sheikh’s Memory Trace, the first of his three-volume photographic proj- ect on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Published in the spring of 2015, The Erasure Trilogy is divided into three separate vol- umes—Memory Trace, Desert Bloom, and Independence/Nakba. The project seeks to explore the legacies of the Arab–Israeli War of 1948, which resulted in the dispossession and displacement of three quarters of the Palestinian population, in the establishment of the State of Israel, and in the reconfiguration of territorial borders across the region. Elements of these volumes have been exhibited at the Slought Foundation in Philadelphia, Storefront for Art and Architecture, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, and the Pace/MacGill Gallery in New York, and will now be presented at the Al-Ma’mal Foundation for Contemporary Art in East Jerusalem, and the Khalil Sakakini Cultural Center in Ramallah. In addition, historical documents and materials related to the history of Al-’Araqīb, a Bedouin village that has been destroyed and rebuilt more than one hundred times in the ongoing “battle over the Negev,” first presented at the Slought Foundation, will be shown at Al-Ma’mal.

    November brings rains and "Hamsin" Winds – Jewish New Year and Yom Kippur at Matzuva – Autumn passes and now Winter beckons…. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heavy Rain: Being an agrarian community Matzuva welcomed the first serious rainfall followed by high winds during the first week of the month. The rainfall was considerable replenishing wadis and streams in the Western Galilee putting a smile on the faces of Matzuva Agriculture workers and the Matzuva community. However, the amazing thing is that the Tel Aviv and Sharon area have had a more plentiful rainfall with flooding than in the Galilee and the Golan. Our need is much greater than theirs! I look out of window today and I see a fine rain falling – the Med Sea to the west is covered with an enormous black cloud – will it give forth in Western Galilee or in South Lebanon or both?? It is with much sadness that Miriam Sha'ar was buried at the Matzuva cemetery during October after a prolonged period of ill health. The week preceding the funeral the entire Sha'ar family celebrated Miriam's 70th birthday with her in Eilat. was born in the Romania/Transylvania in 1944.

  • From the Shavei Tzion Archives: Transportation and Transport February, 2015 Judith Temime
    From the Shavei Tzion Archives: Transportation and Transport February, 2015 Judith Temime On April 21, 1938, one week after the founding of our moshav, the "Juedische Rundschau", the official newspaper of the German Zionist Federation, wrote excitedly: "A new place on the map of Palestine, the light of a new projector in the night skies of Palestine, a new name in the mouths of the Jews of Palestine and the Diaspora. Out of Rexingen, Schawei Zion has risen…the people of Rexingen have settled on their land." Paving the entry road in Shavei Tzion, spring 1938. On the left, a Jewish Settlement Policeman (JSP ghaffir) stands guard. From the collection of the Shavei Tzion Archives. "Davar", on April 14, 1938, only one day after the tower and stockade encampment was built here on the first day of settlement, reported that "the settlers went out this morning to pave the road…one kilometer long, it will link the new settlement with the Acre-Beirut road". In mining sand from our seafront for use in construction, the settlers worked alongside laborers from "Even v'Seed" and in paving the road they worked with laborers from "Solel Boneh" so that from the very inception of the moshav, members earned wages to support the settlement. At the beginning of May in 1938, Dr. Manfred Scheuer, the British Mandate-appointed "mukhtar" (headman) of the new, little settlement wrote in his journal: "Today, Fredy Weil and Zev Berlinger began to learn how to lay stones in paving the road. Fredy had the opportunity of acquiring the skill during his six weeks in a concentration camp and (he) said yesterday that a man should be able to lay 60 square meters and earn a high wage.
