Kitchen and shower water pipes
were separated from toilet pipes
to be recycled for irrigation.
This modular system was made
from readily available components.
The system will be enhanced in an incremental way.
Thorsten Brueckner from Germany helped install it.

It is part of a larger installation consisting of a mud wall, a mud house, four mud ovens
and a man and woman mud sculpture, a tribute to immigrants from rural Morocco who planted most of Israel`s forests and settled many of its remote villages.

These two chicken houses will make our
Moroccan Jewry Museum for Living Culture,
Thanks to the hard work of so many devoted volunteers from around the world, an international contribution to the rehabilitation of a farming village in need of a vocation!
This chicken house will be a lively Moroccan Jewry archive, gallery and residence for guest artists and lecturers. It will be a place to feed the soul and body. Here we will make cheese, jam, juice, liquor as well as bake bread in mud ovens. Andrew Chanania helped rebuild this structure.
Our dream is to turn this chicken house into
A Moroccan Jewry Museum for Living Culture.
With your help our dream comes true.
