Timed around Tu B’shvat (the New Year for the Trees) we will be reading a truly wild story from the 19th century chassidic master Rebbe Nachman. This outrageous love story is filled with broken hearts, gender queering, and pirates as well as land-based imagery, moments of nature connection, and belonging to and transformation with place.

Throughout the day we will alternate reading and interpreting this story, tending to and working on the land, and weaving our own land stories. The text will be provided in the original and translation, and the day is suitable for all levels of Jewish learning and landwork backgrounds.
