Tu B' Shevat is a harvest festival that has roots in the middle ages and tithing from the crops grown in various Jewish Communities. Tomorrow night my family will observe a beautiful new tradition that we have adopted in the past several years, a Tu B' Shevat Seder. We have learned this tradition from Sephardic friends and the kids really enjoy seeing all the different fruits and nuts and tasting them. The themes of the holiday are hope and healing the world, and it will be easy to tie current day events into the discussions at dinner tomorrow and all weekend long. The links below are to a seder and additional information on the holiday and also various family activities.
