Happy Jewish Earth Day or Birthday of Trees!
Tu BiShvat is rooted in ancient agricultural practices. February marks the rainy season in Israel, making it a proper time to plant trees! Today, it is celebrated as Jewish “Earth Day,” a day of ecological stewardship for our world. https://t.co/kQvfpU7NFJ

Tu BiShvat, or "New Year of the Trees," is Jewish Arbor Day. This year it begins on Sunday, 2/5, and ends the next evening. The holiday was originally an agricultural festival, corresponding w/ the start of spring in Israel; today it's more of an environmental holiday. https://t.co/Kk7su9bWr2
Every year we bring rabbinical & cantorial students to plant trees—in the West Bank & Israel—for Tu BiShvat.
Facing an extremist govt & rising violence, this simple hopeful act feels even more important.
Will you join us in planting 2 trees for justice?
