Shavuot - Feast of Weeks
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Among the wonders of modern Israel is its agricultural sector: this mostly arid land, with a small farm workforce, is able to supply 95% of the food needs of its 7+ million population. It's been done with a combination of some of the world's most advanced irrigation techniques and a highly mechanized approach to farming. In this drone video by contributor AirWorks, you'll get a bird's eye view of the Israeli wheat harvest during the Shevuot holiday, which has roots in part as a harvest festival.

Shavuot holiday has a double significance: It marks the all-important wheat harvest in Israel (Exodus 34:22), and it commemorates the anniversary of the day when God gave the Torah to the nation of Israel assembled at Mount Sinai.
