BEACH CLEANUP 🧴

Do your part @ Hof Hapirza!

Looking for something to do on Friday morning? Join the amazing Plastic Free Israel at the Hapirza Beach near Herzliya for a beach clean-up from 9:00-12:00. As the rainy season begins, wind and rain sweep a lot of garbage from land towards the sea – this is a great chance to catch it before it’s too late! Also, great news this week: the tax on single use plastic increased… This is a great first step to reducing usage!
