Dovev

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dovev (Hebrew: דוב"ב) is a moshav in the Upper Galilee in northern Israel. It belongs to the Merom HaGalil Regional Council and to the Moshav movement (tenu'at hamoshavim). It is located about 7 km north of Har Meron near Israel's border with Lebanon

The Hebrew letters of the initialism "Dovev" stand for David Bloch-Blumenfeld, one of the leaders of the Labor Movement in the land of Israel, who was a mayor of Tel Aviv. The moshav was founded in 1963 by immigrants to Israel from Morocco and Iran.

Most residents of the moshav work in agriculture.

East of the moshav is a nature reserve, the pond of Dovev.
