| Tu B'Shevat -New Year of the Trees |
 |
|
Tu B'shevat, an ecological holiday which coincides with the growing season in Israel when trees are planted, was celebrated by Jewish Pavilion staff, volunteers and seniors in almost 50 facilities. Residents enjoyed eating fruits, especially those native to Israel such as figs, dates, grapes, and pomegranates. The residents tried new fruits and nuts and said prayers at their Tu B'Shevat seders and festivities. Volunteer Lawrence Morrell and his daughter, Dana, planted fig trees and read poetry in honor of this special holiday. Tu B' Shevat is a time to appreciate our gorgeous world and the Source of all life.
