Zichron Ya'akov


We visited Zichron Ya'akov, a beautiful town located on another part of Mt Carmel further south towards Caesarea. We travelled with some friends Allan, Muna and Jo-anne. We enjoyed a visit to 'Tut Neyar' which is a paper mill owned by Izhar and Timnar Neumann. They create beautiful paper products including lamp shades and wall hangings. They grow their own kozo plants which provide very strong fibres for thier paper products They were outside in their beautiful yard busy creating a paper wall hanging. Tut neyar is the Hebrew name for the paper mulberry plant.
