Kashuela Farm
The farm is located on the western slopes of Gush Etzion in the Forest of the
Lamed Hey. The forest was planted by JNF and members of Kibbutz Kfar Etzion in
the late 60’s on land purchased by Shmuel Zvi Holzman, founder of the “El Hahar
Company,” and the KKL/JNF.

Today two families with children live at the farm. Since the farm’s creation
there has been a significant decrease in sabotage and damage of the forest.
In addition, there has been a reduction in land encroachment by Arabs.
Security and basic daily living conditions are constant concerns. Putting it
mildly, the Arab villagers in the area do not ”like” the presence of the farm.
Hence there is round-the-clock security.
