Basis Wulfshagenerhutten Community



               We were fortunate to host recently here in Israel a family from a community in the far
               North of Germany. Martin and Andrea Klotz-Woock, long-time members of the

               community (more than 30 years) came to Israel with their daughter Maya, who was
               born in the community, and whilst here they visited both the International Communes
               Desk and Kibbutz Mishol in Nazareth Illit.

               The community is also active politically – specifically against nuclear power, looking for
               ways to create more sustainable and renewable energy.
