Kibbutz Baram

Kibbutz Baram was founded on June 16, 1949 near the ancient ruins of Kfar Baram, from which it derives its name. Demobilized Palmach soldiers established the secular kibbutz of the Shomer Hatzair movement after the War of Indepedence. Today it has more than 300 members and 250 children, flourishing despite its close 300 meter proximity to Israel's northern border with Lebanon.

Baram cultivates a large system of orchards where apples, pears, nectarines, plums,and kiwi are grown. The fruit is sorted, packed and kept in cold storage in a modern Packing Plant until sent to domestic markets throughout Israel.
Baram has agriculture in the Hulah Valley. There are more than 2,000 dunams for the growing of corn, peanuts and sunflower seeds. A new orchard where we grow different kinds of fruits such as Tangerine, Almonds and more was planted in the Hula Valey replacing Cotton fields we had before.
In addition there are ponds for fish farming.

The main source of income of Baram is derived from the factory for the manufacture of plastics for medical purposes.
