Pri Gan (Hebrew: <templatestyles src="Script/styles_hebrew.css" />פְּרִי גַּן‎, lit. Fruit Garden), also known as Prigan, is a moshav in southern Israel. Located in the Hevel Shalom area of the north-western Negev desert, it falls under the jurisdiction of Eshkol Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 123.

The moshav was founded in 1981 by former residents of Priel, an Israeli settlement in Sinai which was evacuated as part of the Egyptian-Israeli Peace Treaty. Its main produce is vegetables and flowers.
