If you live in Israel or are traveling to Israel and are a huge fan of olives, then mark your calendars because this is the event for you. The olive festival has been a huge part of Israel for years and is celebrated almost every year in northern Israel. It’s an event regarding nature and is perfect for families. This festival occurs throughout the Galilee and the Golan having workshops, tours, discussion and much more.

During this festival season, you will find olive fields throughout the country. People roam into those fields and bring shoppers with them even, roam around and pick up olives with their hands. A lot of Arabs come here with their families along with their kids and almost all of them pick up olives and full up their shoppers from them. These festivals provide such a natural view to us all that we get to fall deep into this lovely beauty of nature, picking up olives by our hands.

If you want to pick up some while you roam into their fields then you should go for “local kibbutzim or moshavs” while going towards the city. There, you will find a bunch of olive trees from where you can pick up some for yourself quite easily and if you are lucky enough to drive into their fields, you can reach up on time during their picking time for olives. If you are not familiar much from the place, then worry not, as there are a lot of alternative solutions such as Israel tourism group that would help you go to those fields and achieve your goal.
