the women
who keep the land
We are a sisterhood connecting through this platform, united in our love for Eretz Yisrael. Women devoted to keeping Shmitah and the mitzvot that safeguard the Land, and those who stand beside them, supporting their holy work. We share one story, one purpose. Rooted in emunah, we pray for each other's success and form an unbreakable bond, bringing geulah to the world.

What Is a Shmitah Farmer?

Shmitah farmers are heroes. By keeping this sacred mitzvah, pausing from planting and harvesting for an entire year, they literally keep us on the land. But it’s not just Shmitah. These farmers faithfully observe all the mitzvot tied to the land during the six years in between: terumot, ma’asrot, orlah, every commandment that binds us to this soil. It’s an act of radical faith and sacrifice that the Torah commands again and again, because these mitzvot are what secure our place here.
The True Heroes
Of Shmitah
It's no accident that these same farmers stand on Israel's borders, between Gaza and Lebanon, the very countries sworn to destroy us. On October 7th, they were the first hit and became our first line of defense. These farmers feed the nation, growing the produce that sustains our families and ensures Israel's food security. When they keep the mitzvot, they protect us on every level: spiritually, physically, and nutritionally. Their faith sustains the land's heartbeat and shields every single one of us.

Shared Experiences
Sisterhood grows from shared foundations - our families, our Shabbat tables, our recipes, raising our children, our values and traditions passed down through generations. Here you'll discover the daily lives of women farming Israel's land, learning what makes their experience unique: the rhythm of planting and harvest that shapes their year, keeping the mitzvot that were given to all of us but only they can perform. Recipes made from what they grow with their own hands, and the particular joys and struggles of raising families while stewarding the earth- weaving connections through the things that unite us all as Jewish women while discovering the beauty in what makes each of our paths unique.

“When you see the sacrifices that [they] take upon themselves to keep their lives, the level of faith, real true precious faith in Hashem that they were able to share with us, is something that we only dream of.”

"The non-keeping of Shmitah brought about the galus (exile) and the keeping of Shmitah will bring about the geula (redemption). Just to know there are such kind of Yidden, makes you tremendously proud of being part of Klal Yisroel"
"Those outside of Eretz Yisroel that do not merit to keep the mitzvah of Shmitah [but support it] have a greater merit than those who keep it, like Yissacher and Zevulun..."
