What is Tu B’Shvat?

Tu B'Shvat is a time to reflect on the natural world and our role in nurturing and appreciating it.

Traditionally, the day is marked by eating fruits, especially those connected to the Land of Israel, and reflecting on themes of growth, both physical and spiritual. It takes place from Friday, January 22 – Saturday, January 23, 2027.
