8 Delectable Israeli Food Gifts from Lin's Farm

Lin's Farm's story begins in 1935 with Uriel Lin, a young boy, working in the fields of the Jezreel Valley of northern-central Israel, who dreamt of one day starting his own farm. Years later, Uriel Lin's dream comes true as he and his wife Tamar establish Lin's Farm in central-southern Israel, in the area of Kfar Bilu. Lin's Farm is best known for their natural and preservative-free dips, spreads, and honey made with the freshest ingredients from the farm. Their honeys are made from wildflower pollination, and Lin's Farm is a favorite among Israelis and internationals alike as a sweet reminder of Israel.

1. Lin's Farm Pure Kosher Honey from Wild Flowers

Wildflower honey is one of the most popular types of honey, adding a unique flavor of the landscape where it was made. Israel is something very special, whether you want it special for Rosh Hashanah for dipping apple or to pour over the challahs, or just for the pure, aromatic quality to enjoy year-round. Enjoy this wildflower honey all the more knowing it lacks any preservatives or additives.

2. Lin's Farm All-Natural Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Olive oil is one of the 7 Species of Israel, and remains an integral part of Israeli cooking for any traditional cuisine. The Lin's Farm olive oil is the only way to complete your kitchen if you want a taste of the Holy Land for frying, as a salad dressing, or even in baking without dairy. This also makes for a great holiday gift.

3. Lin's Farm All-Natural Traditional Haroset

Charoset is of course associated primarily with the Passover seder, but this sweet spread can really be enjoyed year round. While traditional charoset often is majority apple-based, this one mixes it up and uses 55% dates, along with numerous other fruits, wine, and nuts for a delicious taste. Try it out now, and enjoy it again for your seder, as this haroset is kosher for Passover.

4. Lin's Farm "Savion" Gift Box

Looking for an all natural gift set from Israel? This set of Israeli spreads and olive oil is a great gift for a housewarming or holiday present, made up of honey, silan (date syrup), a bottle of olive oil, and apples-and-honey marmalade, making this gift set perfect for Rosh Hashanah.

5. Lin's Farm Glass Apple Dish Set

6. Lin's Farm Natural Date Honey (Silan)

Honey is a traditional treat for Rosh Hashanah, but did you know the honey in "a land flowing with milk and honey" is referring to silan (meaning "flowing"), otherwise known as date syrup? You can get your own jar of natural, preservative free silan to add into teas, onto desserts, or whatever else want to add a little sweetness to.
