Modern Jewish priestesses are reviving ancient rituals based on the elements and cycles of the earth.  We will explore ancient texts connected to the Jewish calendar, applying them to modern agriculture and sustainability. We will discuss creative ways to gather in community to take part in earth-based Jewish ritual in all seasons. Whether you’re looking to gather in community on a monthly basis or connected to a holiday, participants will learn skills to craft Jewish rituals aligning them to any season or climate.

Sarah Chandler, aka Kohenet Shamirah, is a Brooklyn-based Jewish educator, ritualist, artist, activist, and poet. Currently, she is the program director of Romemu Yeshiva and a garden educator with Grow Torah.
