We’ll be gathering on Saturday, November 12^th at 5 pm at Shelburne Farms (!!)– up at the fire circle on the hill behind the farm barns (the beautiful barns where your kids like to pat bunnies and chase chickens.) I’ll be leading a short, interactive, singing-heavy tot friendly havdallah service, followed by a potluck with a bonfire + (kosher!) smores party. The service will be friendly and welcoming to tots from babies to bigger kids.

Please bring: LAYERS of clothing to stay warm! Camp chairs or blankets to sit on! A potluck dish or two to share! A singing voice! A spirit of adventure! A love of the outdoors and being Jewish or Jew-ish or you-ish!

We will share a potluck + smores making after we do the Havdalah service—bring lots, eat lots–  it will be great. We’ll bring some paper ware, but even better if you bring your own utensils and bowls/ plates if possible.

You can drive all the way in and park at the Farm Barn and then walk up the short steep hill to the fire circle. We’ll make it clear where we are.

Finally– a special thank you to OZ parents Lynn and Mary Clare for connecting us with the ability to host at Shelburne Farms!
