The name Arugot comes from the Song of Songs: “My beloved has gone down to his garden, to the beds of spices.” For the Lachman family, this verse represents their belief that plants remind us that all good things come from the soil. It reflects their view that both nature and people are influenced by the conditions in which they grow.
Living in southern Israel holds deep biblical meaning for the family. This is the land where Abraham dug wells, which were later blocked and then reopened by Isaac. The Lachmans see their life and work as a continuation of that story — helping to restore life, water, and growth to the desert.
Running a business in Moshav Shuvah is not easy. Security challenges and uncertainty are part of daily life. Yet through Lev Haolam, Arugot has been able to share its products with supporters around the world, turning simple acts of care into a powerful connection between people, land, and purpose.
Supporting Arugot means supporting the Lachman family and their family-run business, rooted in a strong connection to the land and natural production.
