Seder Rosh Hashanah

     

Following our shortened Erev Rosh Hashanah services, create a special Seder for Rosh Hashanah as part of your meal ritual. This special seder is an old Sephardic Jewish tradition that is particularly meaningful this year when we are doing more of our holiday observance at home. If you would like to learn more, with ideas about how to prepare, take a few minutes to read this article on a "pandemic-proof" way to celebrate Rosh Hashanah at home.
