Zaytoun imports fair trade, medjoul dates which supports Palestinian farmers. It’s caramelly, soft and succulent. Many dates found in our supermarkets are farmed in occupied Palestine, an easy way to ensure you are not supporting apartheid and illegal settlements (which aren’t vegan) is to buy from ethical brands like Zaytoun. #dates #vegansforpalestine #vegans4bds

عيد مبارك!! Palestine 🇵🇸 produces some of the tastiest dates in the world. These come from the beautiful city of Jericho in the West Bank. They tasted divine. Thick and juicy, with a sweet, smooth and creamy texture. Zaytoun is a British non-profit organisation which supports Palestinian farmers and farming communities by helping to increase the market for their olive oil products internationally, and by helping the farmers improve the quality of their oil through training and equipment provision. Zaytoun or زيتون is the Arabic word for olive, a symbol of peace and harmony, something the Palestinians need now more than ever. 🫒 🍉 🇵🇸 #dates #eidmubarak #eid #vegansagainstapartheid #freepalestine #jericho #zaytoun #vegansforpalestine #palestinianlivesmatter #medjouldates #palestine

Amazing Palestinian dates 100% natural. From a social enterprise that support Palestinian farmers. Today is vital that we do what we can to support Palestine and boycott Israeli produce, you can use the app NO THANKS to search for products or scan bar codes and be sure that you are not complicit of genocide. #vegansnacks #sweet #freepalestine #medjouldates #fairtrade #abillionforpalestine

I’m in love with these dates. They’re as lovely and beautiful as you might expect from a date, almost melt-in-your-mouth. Plus, they’re ethically sourced from Palestinian-owned farms in Jericho, in support of Palestinian communities, which adds an extra layer of sweetness. I have a couple with my morning coffee before breakfast. or anytime, really. Zaytoun’s products are ethically sourced from Palestine, in the name of standing in solidarity with Palestinian farming communities. They have olives and olive oils, almonds, Za'atar spice mixes, dates, as well as olive oil soaps and more. I’m Keen to explore their range of products. I acknowledge that a tiny purchase such as this isn’t much, but hopefully it’s a step in the right direction. I’m certain many of us here care about social justice, and recognise that Israel’s apartheid and domination over Palestinians is cruel and criminal, to say the least. No amount of pink-washing and vegan-washing by Israel and their IDF will distract us from their widespread senseless killing and oppression. We all know that Apartheid is anti-vegan. But I digress. Anyways if you’re after a feel-good date, this ticks all the boxes.
