History
The kibbutz was founded in 1968 by Israeli-born youth with a kibbutz background.[3] Later they were joined by Gar'inei Nahal (Nahal core groups) and volunteers from abroad. In the 2000s a community expansion program was open to accommodate families seeking a high quality of life away from urban centers. The population of Ein Zivan today consists thus of kibbutz members (43 families) and residents (40 families).[4] It was the first kibbutz to initiate the process of privatization of common property.
Demography
In November 2011 the kibbutz had a population of 83 families (243 people).[4]
Economy
Ein Zivan's economy is based mostly on agriculture. It has one of the largest deciduous orchards, containing apples, cherries, peaches, pears and nectarines. The northern kibbutz also has vineyards, linked to the Golan Heights Winery. Chocolatier Carina Chaplinsky, a new immigrant from Argentina, runs a chocolate business at the kibbutz that includes a factory, a boutique outlet, a workshop and tasting rooms.[5] The Pelter Winery, established in 2002, is also located at Ein Zivan.[6][failed verification] The winery produced 85,000 bottles in 2010.[7] Winemaker Tal Pelter has been hailed by Haaretz wine critic Daniel Rogov as a "rising star".[8] Ein Zivan also runs a bed and breakfast establishment, Lan BaGolan.[9]
