Why is this fertile land we see before us called Zevulun Valley? That’s a question that puzzled even early settlers. You see, the Zevulun Valley, stretching 14 kilometers long and 9 kilometers wide, isn’t truly a valley. It’s a coastal plain. It stretches along the Haifa Bay, a continuation of a geological fault that carves a path from the Jordan River to this point. The name Zevulun Valley was actually a mistake. Historical records, specifically the Book of Joshua, placed the Tribe of Zevulun within the Jezreel Valley. This land, however, belonged to the tribe of Asher. Despite the misnomer, the Zevulun Valley thrived. It’s bounded by the Naaman River to the north, Mount Carmel to the south, and the Mediterranean Sea to the west. The Kishon River flows through its south side, reaching the Haifa Bay. Over time, the Zevulun Valley became home to various settlements. The Krayot cluster of cities rose in the west, while the Zevulun Regional Council settlements occupy the center. Kibbutz Yagur and Kfar Hasidim stand in the east, alongside other settlements like Rechasim and Arab villages like Ibtin.
