Kibbutz farmers show their willingness to end the conflict, with thousands in attendance

Within the framework of the campaign "What are you willing to do?" OneVoice Israel invited its youth leadership to take part in the Shavuot Festival Event of the Kibbutz Movement at Gan Shmuel. The Kibbutz Movement has a very rich tradition of exhibiting its agricultural produce in an exciting and impressive ceremony. As part of OneVoice Movement's efforts to appeal to different sectors of the population with the demand to take our destiny into our own hands, OneVoice reached out to the people of the Kibbutzim in coordination with Mr. Gavri Bar Gil – the head of the Kibbutzim movement – in the month of May on their festive day. OneVoice asked them: "What are you willing to do to end the conflict?"

During the Ceremony OneVoice Israel granted the people of the kibbutz a symbolic ‎fruit basket and blessed them on behalf of OneVoice Palestine and the West Bank Farmers. In return, the kibbutz farmers awarded the Palestinians baskets with their agricultural crop.

Thousands of Israeli farmers and friends participated in the event and the voice of the moderates was heard in a great display of color and tradition.
