Each year Zaytoun coordinates trips to Palestine. These include the Protective Presence Trip and The Taste of Palestine Tour, which is run in conjunction with The Amos Trust. All of the trips are timed to coincide with the annual olive harvest, usually around the end of October.
A 10-day trip with our friends at The Amos Trust based in the kitchens, restaurants and markets of Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Sebastia and Nazareth.
An opportunity for volunteers to spend a fortnight alongside the olive farmers in the groves and offer solidarity as they bring their valuable harvest home.
Our week-long harvest tour offers an insight into the social and cultural landscape while visiting notable places such as Bethlehem and Jerusalem.
