Garin Aliyah are groups of people who moved together to Israel.

Garin is Hebrew for “seed” and Aliyah refers to immigrating to Israel. Since the beginning of the 20th century, groups of people (usually circles of young friends) moved to Israel together. The term Garin Aliyah originally referred to these groups who came from all across the world. Immigrating in a group provided the support necessary for survival. Many of these groups founded their own kibbutzim. The phenomemon of these groups has been ongoing since before the State of Israel was established in 1948.

A variation of the original Garin Aliyah groups still exist today. Today, it is rare for Garin Aliyah groups to move to Israel together and form a community. Garin Aliyah groups provide support for people interested in moving to Israel. They also provide forums for social-networking, information gathering, and encouragement.
