Adanim (Hebrew: עֲדָנִים, lit.'Delights') is a moshav in central Israel. Located in the Sharon plain near Hod HaSharon, it falls under the jurisdiction of Drom HaSharon Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 509.[1]

History

The moshav was founded in 1950 by immigrants from Romania on land that had belonged to the depopulated Palestinian village of Biyar 'Adas.[2] It was initially named Yarkona BeHarhava (Hebrew: ירקונה בהרחבה, lit.'Yarkona Expansion') before being renamed after Psalm 36:8(9):[3] "You give them drink from Your river of delights."
