Tu B’Shevat Seder

On the evening of Wednesday, January 27 just as we enter the middle of winter, the Jewish calendar celebrates Tu B’Shevat, the new year of the trees. This year we at Emanu-El, will offer a (virtual) Tu B'Shevat Seder. You are invited to join Rabbi Lawrence Kushner, Rabbi Jonathan Singer, and Cantor Roslyn Barak for an evening of spiritual considerations, environmentalism, story, and song. 

To prepare, please have bottles of red and white wine or juice and tastings of three categories of fruits or nuts: 

1. Those with an inedible outer covering and edible inside (melons, nuts, pomegranates, coconuts, citrus, bananas, etc.) 
2. Those with an edible outside but inedible pit inside (dates, olives, plums, peaches, apples, avocados, nectarines, pears, etc.) 
3. Those that are entirely edible: (berries, figs, grapes, etc.)
