Tu Bi-Shvat – The New Year of Trees

Tu Bi-Shvat is the New Year of Trees, which in Jewish tradition symbolizes the renewal of nature, growth, and respect for the environment. It is a celebration that invites us to notice the natural world around us and spend meaningful time together as a family.

What is Tu Bi-Shvat?

Tu Bi-Shvat (ט״ו בשבט) marks the beginning of a new cycle in nature - the moment when trees start to awaken after winter. Traditionally, these holidays are connected with gratitude for the land, its fruits, and a responsible attitude toward the environment.
Today, Tu Bi-Shvat is also celebrated as a family-friendly and educational holiday, with a strong focus on environmental awareness and sustainability.
