Tu B’Shvat is the ‘New Year for Trees’, or the beginning of spring in Israel.
Tu B’Shvat is 15th of the Hebrew month of Shvat. Tu B’Shvat is the ‘New Year for Trees’, or the beginning of spring in Israel. Some customs of Tu B’Shvat are to: Plant trees (at home or sponsor plantings in Israel); eat fruits that grow in Israel; have a Tu B’Shvat ‘seder’ during which fruits are eaten and Biblical and other passages about spring are read.
" . . . a land of wheat and barley, of vines, figs, and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey . . . When you have eaten your fill, give thanks to the L-rd your G-d for the good land which He has given you."
(Deut. 8:8, 10)
