==History== thumb|Moshav Patish Patish was established on 3 March 1950, and was named after Horvat Patish (Patish Ruins) which lies about 6km to the east. To begin with, immigrants from Egypt were brought to settle the site. However, they refused to leave the truck which brought them to the site. After several trials, a group of Kurdish Jews settled in the moshav in May that year.
