Serve in the Land of the Bible
Volunteer at Biblical Tamar Park
Be Part of Something Meaningful
At Biblical Tamar Park, volunteers do more than observe history — they help preserve it. From helping maintain archaeological areas to supporting restoration projects and welcoming visitors, your service directly contributes to the care and interpretation of one of Southern Israel’s oldest active sites. Whether you’re a student, retiree, or professional, your time here becomes part of the ongoing story of this remarkable place.

Why Volunteer?
Volunteers helping with an exhibit
We believe that the volunteer program is one of the important components to fulfill our mission in Israel and at Tamar. Volunteering is a unique and special way to bless the Israeli people and the Land. It is the mission of Blossoming Rose to support Israel and the Jewish people by sponsoring humanitarian and educational activities in Israel and the United States that serve to give people an opportunity to learn about Israel’s history.
“I (God) will give it (the Land) to you for a heritage.” – Exodus 6:8
This “handed down” legacy dates back to the time of Abraham. Blossoming Rose has been honored to be “handed down” Biblical Tamar Park and it is our duty to restore and maintain this 55 acre, national, educational and historic site, but we cannot do it alone. We are very thankful for all the volunteers and donations that help make this all possible.
