Shoshani’s Dates
Beautiful agricultural tours south of the Dead Sea and Sodom Square settlements with art galleries and craft
workshops.
On the agricultural tour, you’ll hear stories about the founding of the settlements and the difficulties in
successfully farming in this arid area.
You’ll learn about the local desert flora and fauna, and the impact of the salty soil, harsh sun, and scarcity of
rainwater.
Come to visit our private orchards and date fields.
Furthermore, you’ll receive comprehensive explanations about dates, stop at a pepper or basil greenhouse
(self-harvesting, depending on season), and learn about vegetable and spice farming.
During the tour, we’ll get out of the car to truly experience the sandy and arid area.
The tour ends at our gallery where paintings by Moriah Katz, handmade wooden trays by Ronen, desert
landscape photographs and a variety of art sourced from natural materials are displayed.
Dates, coffee, soft drinks, and snacks can be purchased there.
You can also take part in creative workshops sourced from natural materials, and workshops on stone
painting.
The tours are suitable for all ages and for couples, families, and groups up to 50 people.
Team building and fun days for businesses are also welcome.
