Ofer (Hebrew: <templatestyles src="Script/styles_hebrew.css" />עֹפֶר, lit. Fawn) is a moshav in northern Israel. Located south of Haifa, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hof HaCarmel Regional Council. In 2011 it had a population of 609.[1]
History
The moshav was founded in 1950 by immigrants from India and Iran. Its name is derived from Ayn Ghazal (lit. Deer Spring), the depopulated Arab village on whose land it was built. Agricultural income is derived from raising cattle, sheep and chickens growing vegetables and flowers, and tourism.
