The community garden in Old Jaffa will hold its first “Gina Shchuna” neighborhood gathering on Friday, November 13, a picnic on the lawn that organizers hope will become a regular local tradition.
The program:
- Neighborhood picnic: on the lawn, with time to meet the neighbors.
- Seed bomb workshop: for kids.
- Planting: hands-on work in the community garden.
- Druze pita: from Kabakeh restaurant, free of charge.
Visitors are invited to bring picnic mats, musical instruments and something to share.
The garden was started by the Social High School. With the school moving out of the neighborhood, the Old Jaffa Development Company is reviving it in an effort led by Itai Gvirtzman. Residents are invited to join the garden’s community and help plant and look after it as a neighborhood meeting place.
Location: the lawn above the HaTzorfim parking lot, Old Jaffa.
Hours: noon to 4:30 p.m.
Admission is free.
