Our founder
A warm connection,
from Israel to you.
Rabbi Shmuel Veffer founded Galilee Green in 2014. His purpose was to build a warm relationship between people who love Israel and the people who have returned to the Biblical Land.
Before moving to Israel, Shmuel worked as a management consultant in Toronto. He became a senior lecturer at Aish HaTorah in Jerusalem and is the inventor of the KosherLamp.
He now lives with his wife Sarah in Tiberias, in the Galilee. Through olive oil, honey, recipes and stories, he shares a little of that life with families around the world.
