A place to convene and a table to share.
Beyond treatment rooms and gardens, the center holds a stone conference hall for Torah, learning, and convening — and a café kitchen and dining hall where the work of healing comes back to the table.
Beit HaKenes — house of gathering
A vaulted stone hall with arched windows opening onto the olive grove. Built for Torah conferences, healing-arts symposia, NGO gatherings, board retreats, and small academic convenings — held in the rhythm of prayer times and the Jewish calendar.
- Seats up to 60 around the long table; 120 in lecture rows
- Projector, sound, and microphones for talks and panels
- High-speed wifi, recording-ready acoustics, translation booth
- Adjacent breakout courtyard with herbal tea service
Shulchan — the table as medicine
Long wooden tables under timber beams, an open kitchen pouring out fresh breads, herbal teas, and seasonal Galilee plates. The café opens daily for guests and visitors; the full hall hosts Shabbat meals, weddings, sheva brachot, and conference dining.
- Strictly kosher, mehadrin certification, fully shomer Shabbat
- Farm-to-table menus from our gardens and Holy Land Herbs
- Day café open to visitors — coffee, fresh bread, herbal tonics
- Communal dining hall seats 120 for full Shabbat retreats
