"When I came into this world, I found a carob tree that others had planted for me.  

Just as my ancestors planted for me, I plant this tree for my descendants."

Strengthen your roots with Israel this Tu B'Shevat, both spiritually and physically, by donating a fruit tree to be planted in our sister city of Arad.

Your fruit tree will help bring beauty and new life to the Northern Park of Arad. With each donation you will receive a picture of your tree with a plaque honoring your deeply rooted connection to the land of Israel and our bonds with Arad.

Donations of $72 per tree can be made online at ShalomDelaware.org/AradRoots or by calling 302.427.2100
