Hello all-
In the cold and dark of winter we're excited to bring a Shabbaton to you to celebrate Tu B'Shevat, the Jewish New Year for the Trees. Though certainly a holiday in which we connect to the environment, in the Talmud this is also discussed as essentially a tax holiday, so we'll hear wisdom of how environmental and economic justice go hand in hand.
Most importantly though, we want the work of environmental justice to feel possible. We want you to see the You Be'Shevat!
