Founded by a group of young, dedicated pioneers, the community of Argaman was the second community established in the Jordan Valley after the liberation of the Biblical Heartland in 1967. Located just north of Gilgal, where the Children of Israel first encamped in the Land of Israel after their exodus from Egypt, Argaman today stands as an emblem of resilience and continued growth. Notwithstanding the harsh, arid conditions of the Jordan Valley, the pioneers of Argaman succeeded in creating a thriving agricultural settlement, now known for its fertile vineyards and flourishing date palms.
