Understand
Although commonly referred to as a Kibbutz, Geva is in actual fact a Kvutzat. In Hebrew this translates to 'Group of,' and Kibbutz translates to 'Gathering,' suggesting that the early members of a Kvutza were possibly a little more picky about accepting new members to their group.
Geva was set up in 1922 by Jewish immigrants who were mainly from Poland and Russia. The Kibbutz is still run in a way which is considered original, and unlike many other Kibbutzim in the area, has not begun to privatize any of its industry. The kibbutz does take volunteers, see below. There is around 700 people living in Geva, with everything you would find in a small town.
Although Geva may not seem like a perfect tourist destination, anyone who is passing through the valley would not regret stopping by and having a look around. With amazing countryside, views and community spirit, this kibbutz is perfect for anyone wanting visit a social enviroment.
