Tzova (Lang-he|צובה), also known as Palmach Tzova ( _he. פלמ"ח צובה), is a kibbutz in central Israel. Located near Mevaseret Zion, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Yehuda Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 588.

The village was established on 19 October 1948 by demobilised Palmach soldiers on land which had formerly belonged to the abandoned Arab village of Suba. Tzova was initially spelt צובא, before adopting the current common spelling of צובה.
