The original gap ledger placed this attraction in Neot HaKikar. Current council, regional-tourism and managed-listing records agree that it is in Ein Tamar. Use Ein Tamar when planning the route.
Seasonal picking and field access depend on the date and agricultural conditions. Confirm the route and hands-on activity before booking.
What happens on an agricultural tour?
Current tourism descriptions include the story of farming and settlement in Sodom Square, time in fields or the date orchard, and an explanation of growing crops in hot, salty desert conditions. The visit may finish at a gallery with art and handmade work.
Seasonal picking is not available throughout the year. The crop, field access and hands-on element depend on the date and agricultural conditions. Call before booking if self-picking is the main reason for your visit.
