Unique Farmers Fair at BeerBazaar Brewery
Since the beginning of the war, Beer Bazaar Brewery, in cooperation with Leket Israel, has been holding a voluntary agricultural fair at the brewery's new visitor center in Kfar Daniel every Friday from 10:00 to 14:00. About half of the produce at the fair comes from the area surrounding the Gaza Strip. "The project is designed to generate maximum income for farmers at minimum cost and zero tinkering," the project managers explain.
The event is run by volunteers and the brewery yard also hosts an artisans fair and businesses affected by the war, food tracks and free tours of the brewery. Among the participating farms are: Alon Family, Ofek Farm, Dollinger Farm, Leaves on the Hill, Gal On Honey, Feldman Farm, Nahum Farm and many more.
In order to help the farmers in the envelope, the owner of Beerbazaar, Lior Weiss, decided to quickly convert the new brewery into an agricultural market. The refrigeration rooms were used to store produce, the forklifts moved to transport vegetable pallets instead of beer pallets, and the visitor center was also converted for the sales fair. The brewery's trucks collect the produce from the fields for free, and each farmer is assigned a volunteer who keeps in touch with him and operates the stall for him in the Friday market. The money from sales goes directly to farmers at no cost or brokerage gaps.

The pizza from the envelope is hosted in Chotzot Shefayim
Food Track The Neapolitan pizza "Pizza Home", which has become a household name among the communities near the Gaza Strip, comes to stay at the Hutzot Shefayim complex.

Among the pizzas you can enjoy, for example, earth pizza with garlic butter, mushrooms, red onions, mozzarella, basil - 48 NIS or green and artichoke - cream sauce with pesto, mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, artichokes - 58 NIS
