Craft’s Origin is a boutique Israeli company located in an agricultural settlement, Givat Nili, in northern Israel. It combines art, agriculture, and sustainability with traditional designs and collaborations with other small boutique companies.
The family at the heart of Craft’s Origin is the next generation of farmers living on Moshav Givat Nili. After time away from the family farm’s verdant offering, they returned with a desire to find new ways to use the surplus harvest from the peach, nectarine, and olive trees. To use all that was left from the vineyard’s harvest and raise awareness for the essential role bees play in a farmer’s life.
They make beautiful beeswax candles by hand, revive ancient crafts of the Holy Land, support farming edible greens, and maintain a bee farm. They are researching ways to use surplus peaches to manufacture 100% natural unrefined peach kernel oil.
The Craft’s Origin family weaves together old, modern, renewable, and ancient agriculture to preserve the Holy Land’s traditions and beauty.
