Shalom,

You are cordially invited to a Zoom Tu Bishvat Seder on Tu Bishvat, Wednesday, February 12, from 8  to  930 PM Israel time (1:00 to 2:30 PM US Eastern time)

You can attend at https://tau-ac-il.zoom.us/j/88447791056

The link for the ten pages of source sheets that will be the basis of the Zoom seder is https://drive.google.com/file/d/1k9V0a02e2M7lJXY1MTMxYLwmavqEHdT0/view?usp=sharing:. They will be screen-shared.

I have conducted many Tu Bishvat seders in the past, both in rooms with attendees and by Zoom.

You may attend the Seder without participating in the Tu Bishvat rituals, but If you wish to do so, please have at least one of the following at hand: fruit or nuts that have an outer shell, fruit that has a pit; fruit with neither an outer shell nor a pit, as well as some white grape juice or wine and some red grape juice or wine.

Everyone is guaranteed a good time since there will be plenty of nuts at the seder.

If you would like to learn more about Tu Bishvat, you might find some of my eight Tu Bishvat-related articles at the link below helpful:

When the world is approaching a climate catastrophe and facing other environmental threats, it is an important time to celebrate Tu Bishvat, the most environmental Jewish holiday, as if global survival matters, and to start treating Tu Bishvat as a Jewish Earth Day.

I look forward to seeing you at the Zoom seder.

Suggestions are very welcome.

Please feel free to share this message.

KOL tuv,

Richard
