Yup. That's it. You do all sorts of work. I was put to work in a tyre factory on one kibbutz. That was horrible, dirty, and incredibly hot work. On another kibbutz I was put to work on irrigation for 3 months. I loved that. Up at 4am, driving through the desert sat in the back of a 4x4, sun comin up, then laying miles of pipe across fields. Making the desert bloom so to speak. Really satisfying work.
But normally you'll do rotation, a week picking fruit in the orchards, a week washing dishes in the kitchens, a week doing laundry, a week helping the builders, a week in the kitchen, a week cleaning floors, a week gardening, a week farming, all sorts.
It's a really wholesome way of life.
You can't smoke weed openly, no, but there's loads of it on all the kibbutz I worked on.
It's not a cult. It's a working holiday really. You don't have to be into Zionism or any of that stuff.
