In the squares on Hativat Golani Street in Hadera we placed works that are a tribute to the gardening industry in the city
One of the symbols of the city of Hadera are the fruits of the citrus trees and orchards that characterized the city since the 20s of the last century.
Thousands of dunams of citrus groves planted by the farmers of the Hadera settlement provided the city’s residents for decades.
