One Million Trees and Unemployed Jewish Immigrants

Footpath in Makhtesh Katan in Negev desert, Israel

My Olive Tree has joined the Bridge to Zion crowdfunding platform to form a unique pro-Israel alliance—impacting the region’s economy and transforming the local ecology.

As Jewish people from around the world continue to return to their homeland Israel, there is an ever-increasing need for jobs in the region. Experts have long predicted the need for a larger job market and many have turned to the majestic olive tree as a viable option for job growth.

The Mediterranean is the perfect place for farming as the growing season lasts almost all year long. While vast stretches of uninhabitable desert run throughout the nation of Israel, Israeli farmers continue to perfect their irrigation techniques, making sustainable agriculture of the olive tree a serious contender for job creation.

The tree itself is multifaceted in the sense that it can produce many products just from the fruit alone. The leaves can also be harvested and pressed to create herbal remedies from their extracts, while olive tree wood is sturdy and is excellent for building furniture and souvenirs. However, to produce anything on a massive scale, a planting of immense proportions must take place.

It has been estimated that at least one million trees would need to be planted in order to provide jobs on a large enough scale to meet the growing demand of unemployed Jewish immigrants. It is for this reason that My Olive Tree has joined the Bridge to Zion crowdfunding site with the goal of planting this amount of trees.

Thousands of trees have already been planted, but there is still much work to be done. Won’t you join us as we strive to provide jobs for the impoverished living in Israel?

“…And the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose.” — Isaiah 35.1

Our Mission

Our mission is to create a partnership between the Evangelical community and the nation of Israel; this partnership will produce employment, income, and revenue for humanitarian aid projects in Israel. We envision the planting of one-million olive trees over the next seven years. This relationship was prophesied in the Bible centuries ago, that the foreigners and strangers (those not of Jewish descent) would help rebuild the walls of Israel and cause the desert to bloom (Isa 35:1). Among other things, this reforestation is an environmental blessing for the entire region. May all who participate in this project be blessed body, soul and spirit; it is time for you to take root in Israel!
