Welcome to Maale Michmas

"All the communal and private sacrifices are brought from the Land [of Israel] and outside the Land, from the new grain or the old grain, except for the Omer and the two Loaves, which may only be brought from the new and from the Land.  And all offerings may only be brought from the choicest. And what is the choicest? From Michmas and Zeno'ah, the prime of all grains."

-Mishna, Menahot 8:1
