Supporting Israel’s farmers in times of crisis

Save a Farm is the only organization providing direct on-the-ground support to Israeli farmers today. For years, we’ve been personally visiting each farmer at their home or farm to assess their needs, evaluate the level of crisis, and distribute emergency funds where they are needed most. Our work is rooted in relationships, trust, and a deep commitment to preserving the land we share as one people.

As of November 2026, Save a Farm has distributed over $1,840,000 since the start of the war.

Funds have been distributed across 156 farms in desperate need, with that support reaching more farmers every day.

We meet farmers where they are, and step in when they need us.

Save a Farm identifies at-risk farms through community leaders, agricultural associations, and direct outreach. We meet each farmer in person, whether in the Golan Heights, the Galilee panhandle, the Gaza envelope, the Jordan Valley, or the Arava, to review their operation and financial situation, and determine where support is needed most. Once the need is clear, we provide that support directly to the farmer, with no intermediary in between.

Support can take many forms:

Covering a mortgage payment to prevent foreclosure

Paying a land lease to keep the farm operational

Funding emergency repairs to irrigation systems or damaged infrastructure

Supporting critical operating costs like water bills, fuel, or labor

Our goal is not just to provide temporary relief but to create a long-lasting relationship with the farms. We help farmers survive the immediate crisis so they can plan for the future.

The land they hold is the land we strive to protect.

Real stories from the farmers we’ve helped.

"We've been here for three generations.
I would not let it end on my watch."

Aharon's family has farmed the same land in the Golan Heights for three generations, shortly after his grandfather helped settle this land in 1967. His orchards produce some of the region's best apples and cherries, crops that have fed Israeli families for decades. But after two years of restricted access to his fields, damaged irrigation lines, and the loss of his workforce, Aharon was facing foreclosure.

"I didn't know where to turn," he says. "The bank was calling, and the lease was coming due. I thought I was going to lose everything my grandfather built."

Save a Farm stepped in with an emergency grant that covered Aharon's lease and funded the repair of his irrigation system. Today, his orchards are producing again, and he is planning for the next season.
