==History==
The kibbutz was established in 1937 as a fishing village by a [gar'in](/source/gar'in) of [HaMahanot HaOlim](/source/HaMahanot_HaOlim) youth group members. It was named for its location in the Hula Valley. After the [draining of the Hula swamps](/source/Hula_Valley), the residents began working in agriculture.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20100925232513/http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/features/the-good-life-on-a-kibbutz-1.315085 The good life on a kibbutz], [Haaretz](/source/Haaretz)</ref>

The [documentary](/source/documentary) film ''[Kibbutz](/source/Kibbutz_(film))''  traces the stages of grieving and disillusionment that followed Hulata's economic collapse and [privatization](/source/privatization).<ref>[https://israelfilmcenterstream.org/film/kibbutz/ Kibbutz: Documentary]</ref>

Hulata is a pluralistic kibbutz that accepts members from all backgrounds, both religiously observant and not.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20100925232513/http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/features/the-good-life-on-a-kibbutz-1.315085 The good life on a kibbutz], [Haaretz](/source/Haaretz)</ref>
