From my good friend, David Ha’ivri comes an offer: he will plant a tree for you in Israel. I know David and have visited the Shomron with him a number of times: he does sterling work explaining the Jewish connections to the beautiful hills of the Shomron where he lives and which are only 40 minutes from central Tel Aviv.
T’u B’Shavat (the 15th of the Hebrew month of Shavat) is traditionally Israel’s tree planting holiday. You can order trees to be planted on your behalf on the mountains of Israel, Samaria. A certificate will be sent to you with dedication message in honor of the dear one of your choice. Payments can be made by contacting David Ha’Ivri via e-mail with special directions and tree order configurations .
Opportunities for planting large plots for congregations or families are available. Being that transparency is very important to us, we would be overjoyed to take you to see the site of the trees planted with your help. So please let David Ha’Ivri know when you plan to be in Israel!
