Sanctioned settler Elisha Yered promoting the farm:

"When the Ben-Baruch family first planted their stake at Gefen Ami, it was not a barren, rocky hilltop but rather a major terrorist hotspot used by residents of the Palestinian village of Beit Ummar to carry out stone-throwing attacks against Jewish motorists on Route 60.

The obstacles they have faced along the way are too numerous to count: terrorist attacks, assaults, evacuations, fires, stormy winters, and everything else. They held on up there on the hill, on their own, together with a small core group of dedicated young men.

But in the end, determination prevailed. Gefen Ami has grown from a small hilltop outpost into a growing community with a vibrant social life 🏃🏡

You're invited to watch the uplifting video made by the outstanding Ben-Baruch family."
