FYSH (First Year Students of Hillel) celebrated Tu B’Shevat, the Jewish new year for the trees, with a variety of fruit and chocolate. 

Participants made fruit kabobs, and each decorated and planted a flower pot with a variety of herbs and flowers such as chamomile, lavender, sage, and mint. 

Tu B’Shevat is an ecological holiday designed to remind Jews of our connection to the earth and to our role as caretakers of the environment.
