The original Tu B’Shevat holiday was created to celebrate God’s presence in the natural world. This ceremony focused on the eating of several varieties of fruit and the drinking of four different types of wine.
In recent years, Tu B’Shevat has become the Jewish equivalent of Arbor Day. On this festival, tree planting ceremonies take place across the land of Israel. These celebrations, modeled after Passover seders, usually rejoice in the natural world and call attention to threats to the environment.
This year, Woodlands invites you to remember why we fight for the health of the Earth. Come (re)connect with nature and explore the rich bounty of fruits and wine, which tie us to our planet.
