Ein HaHoresh (Hebrew: עין החורש‎, lit. Plowman's Spring) is a kibbutz in central Israel under the jurisdiction of Hefer Valley Regional Council.

It was founded on 10 April 1932 by Hashomer Hatzair members from Eastern Europe who reclaimed the land. In 1968 it had 570 inhabitants engaged in intensive farming in citrus plantations, and producing milch cattle. The kibbutz also ran a factory producing sheet steel casks.
