Join us Thursday, January 13, at 7:30 pm for a virtual Tu B'Shevat seder where we'll talk about Boulder's new climate initiative to create cool corridors throughout our community and explain the importance of urban forests and carbon-rich landscapes as critical to both community well-being and climate action.

The focus of this year’s community Tu B’Shevat seder will be Wildfires, Reforestation, and the Climate Crisis. Join us for this virtual event Wednesday evening, January 27, 2021, where we will explore the intersection of Jewish thought, trees, and climate.

Thank you to families and friends who made an end of year donation to Boulder JTree.

The Boulder JCC is hosting a Zero Waste Tu B’Shevat Seder for adults on Sunday, February 9 in partnership with Congregation Bonai Shalom, Congregation Har HaShem, Congregation Nevei Kodesh, Hazon, Moishe House, Tuv Ha'aretz, and Morah Yehudis Fishman: Community Educator.

This year, we celebrated the holiday at Milk and Honey Farm at the J with a new twist, by incorporating the theme of Food Justice into the mystical seder structure.

On January 20th, or 15 Shevat, we’ll be celebrating the new year for trees. Today the holiday is often celebrated as a sort of Jewish “earth day,” connecting the new year for the trees to current environmental issues of our time.

This past Wednesday was Tu B'Shevat, the New Year for trees.  There are various customs for the celebration of the New Year of Trees, the most common of them is eating fruit on this day.

Though Tu B’shevat comes during the heart of winter in North America, the holiday allows us to begin planning for the spring, assessing our environmental commitments for the year, and examining our spiritual place in the natural world.

Come have a great time this Sunday at Boulder's dynamic Tu B'Shvat experience and celebrate the new year of the trees.

The Adventure Rabbi Community enjoyed a festive Tu B’Shevat Seder led by Adventure Educator, Elaine Barenblat and Rabbi Jamie Korngold.

Why not pick up a "date" or another fruit that you have not eaten since last year?
