Tu Bishvat: a Celebration for the Trees

  • Living Tree Alliance 96 Living Tree Lane Moretown, VT, 05660 United States (map)

Celebrate the deep beauty of mid-winter with Living Tree Alliance as we gather to honor the holiday of Tu BiShvat, the birthday of the trees. With programs for all ages, we’ll build our relationship with the earth and with each other.  

Program includes: 

  • 4:30 p.m. Sledding down the big hill

  • 5 p.m.: two programs offered in the field at dusk

    • Family Outdoor Tree Celebration with games and observations

    • Adult Contemplative Sunset Tree Connection with prayer, song, and reflection

  • 6 p.m.: Shabbat candle lighting & tree poetry at the Common House, followed by dinner and deepening our commitments as earth stewards as part of the birthday for the trees and mini Tu BiShvat seder.

A few more details:

  • Be sure to dress warmly for outdoor activities from 4:30–6 p.m.

  • Bring sleds, skis, and snowshoes for outdoor fun on the property.

  • Soup, salad and challah will be provided for dinner. You are welcome to bring a vegetarian side dish to share. 


Please join us!

Tu BiShvat falls approximately halfway between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. As the trees become another year older, this holiday invites us to consider the ways we can live in reciprocity with Mother Nature.
