The kibbutz main branches are in different types of agriculture, a unique carpentry workshop which does exclusive work on furniture for synagogues and an hotel which mainly serves the religious and orthodox population.

The village also has an elementary state-religious school, which serves other villages in the Regional Council. The children of junior high and high school age study at the "Shaked" school which is located in Sde Eliahu. In addition to the school there is also a religious boarding school called "Hodayot" next to the kibbutz.

Adjacent tourism sites include Lavi forest, Hittin, and Nabi Shoaib, a site which is believed by many to be the burial site of Jethro, and is sacred to the Druze, who make an annual pilgrimage there each April.

Famous quotes containing the word economy:

    Wise men read very sharply all your private history in your look and gait and behavior. The whole economy of nature is bent on expression. The tell-tale body is all tongues. Men are like Geneva watches with crystal faces which expose the whole movement.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Everyone is always in favour of general economy and particular expenditure.
    Anthony, Sir Eden (1897–1977)

    Unaware of the absurdity of it, we introduce our own petty household rules into the economy of the universe for which the life of generations, peoples, of entire planets, has no importance in relation to the general development.
    Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
