Seder Tu B’Shvat (English): A celebration of Israel’s seasons and of ecology in the Jewish tradition
Like the Hebrew seder, the English version is a beautiful color spray of wildflowers and clear text presented in a durable laminated booklet designed for use on the table. Suitable for large or small school, synagogue, or community celebrations, as well as for individual families, the seder is designed for multi-generational groups.
Not a translation of the Hebrew, the English version is a completely new text that celebrates Israel’s seasons and ecology in the Jewish tradition. The seder is structured around four cups of mixed white and red wine that reflect the changing colors of Israel’s landscape through the seasons—a custom originated by the 16th-century kabbalists in Safed. Incorporated in the seder are ecological concepts that appear in the Bible and the biblical tradition: biodiversity, human obligations and restrictions in relation to the earth, the Sabbath and sabbatical year.
