Kibbutz Yehiam is located in the western Upper Galilee in northern Israel.
A sweets factory was one of the first industries in Yehi’am. In addition, the kibbutz had a large variety of agriculture branches such as bananas, citrus, avocado, dairy farming, chicken coop, pigsty, fish farming, wheat, cotton and maize (corn), and a large tobacco crop.
Nearby Yehi’am Fortress National Park features an Arab fortress built in the 18th century.
In 1969, Yehi’am established Deli-Yehiam, a kosher meat factory specializing in beef and chicken cold cuts. Its exports to Europe average $10 million a year.
In the early 1990s, Yehi’am built Teva BeYehiam, a 60-room Crusader-style guest house at the foot of the castle.
