“Deed Village” they called it. A fitting name for Kfar Ma’as isn’t it? This unassuming moshav holds a fascinating history.
Kfar Ma’as wasn’t always the tranquil village we see today. It was formed in 1934. Two smaller settlements Behadraga and HaYovel joined forces to create this community. Can you imagine the discussions? The compromises? The hopes and dreams for this new shared life?
Life in Kfar Ma’as wasn’t always easy. The residents faced many challenges. They built their lives on this land. Their perseverance is inspiring. The spirit of cooperation that brought about the unification of Behadraga and HaYovel is what shaped the character of this place.
Today Kfar Ma’as thrives. It is a vibrant testament to the enduring spirit of its founders. Its location south of Petah Tikva on the edge of the Ono Valley is stunning. It falls under the jurisdiction of the Drom HaSharon Regional Council. Kfar Ma’as. Remember the name. It’s a story etched into the land itself. A story of resilience hope and the enduring strength of community. In 2022 it boasted a population of 826. Not a large number but significant for the impact it’s had.
Picture the bustling activity. The scent of fresh produce from the fields. The chatter of neighbors sharing stories. A place built on deeds not just dreams. Kfar Ma’as isn’t just a village it’s a living legacy. A testament to the power of unity and perseverance. A small piece of history nestled peacefully in the heart of Israel. A place where the past informs the present and shapes the future. This quiet moshav has a lot to tell. It’s a story well worth remembering.
