Mishmar Ayyalon

Mishmar Ayyalon (Hebrew: מִשְׁמַר אַיָּלוֹן‎‎, lit. Ayalon Guard) is a moshav in central Israel. Located between Latrun and Ramla on the old Jerusalem-Tel Aviv road, it falls under the jurisdiction of Gezer Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 417.

The moshav was founded in 1949 by a gar'in group of Holocaust survivors from Czechoslovakia. Its main industry is agriculture, particularly focussing on fruit, vegetables and dairy farming. The Lehi forest is located in the moshav, probably because three Lehi veterans (Shimshoni, Vered and Even-Tseva) settled in the moshav in its early days.
