Kfar Hasidim ( _he. כפר חסידים, lit. "Hasidim Village"), also known as Kfar Hasidim Alef to distinguish it from Kfar Hasidim Bet, is a moshav in northern Israel. Located near Kiryat Ata, it falls under the jurisdiction of Zevulun Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 572.

The village was founded in 1924 by a group of Hasidic immigrants of the Fourth Aliyah who had been perparing in Poland. Although the Hasidic town of Bnei Brak had already been established, this time the aim was to create an agricultural settlement rather than an urban one.

In 1950 Kfar Hasidim Bet was established nearby by non-agricultural residents of Kfar Hasidim. Today the village is largely national-religious and secular.
