Tu B’Shvat is comin’ y’all – time to plant something in honor of our wonderful friends, the trees.
I’m going to help my kindergarteners dig in the dirt, but for those of you who don’t like to get schmutzy, check out the Mitzvah Garden, available at PopJudaica.
Each kit contains: EZ Grow Aster, Candytuft, Sweet William and zinnia seeds, enriched soil and nutrient mix, simple planting instructions, Scott’s Miracle-Gro Fertilizer, and a fancy-shmancy leak-resistant container to start your seedlings in. Put in the windowsill and poof! Plant life.
Plus, 10% of of the $8.95 price tag benefits Hazon, “an organization whose mission it is to create a healthier and more sustainable Jewish community.”
And if even that’s too much, you can just wear these.
