Lulav & Etrog Sets - Last chance to order!

If you haven't ordered your Lulav & Etrog Set, you can still get your order in before the morning of this Sunday, Sept 12!

  • The cost is $60 - This is our cost price! 
    This is for a good quality kosher set, grown in Israel from the most reliable heirloom Etrogim seeds.
  • To Order:
    Use this link for your payment jbayarea.org/give and type Lulav in the memo. Or reply to this email to reserve now and pay with a check later.

The four species which we 'take' on Sukkot and recite a special blessing over on each day of the holiday (except for Shabbat) are: Etrog, 3 twigs of myrtle (Hadassim), 2 twigs from a specific type of willow bush (Arovot), and the date palm (Lulav). 

 This is a very special hands-on biblical Mitzvah for the holiday of Sukkot that is easy to take part in!
