Blessings on the Trees!

Image
There are many blessings that we say every day, some more than others. Here is a blessing that we only say once a year during the month of Nissan. We bless two flowering trees, that will grow fruit.  Since this is a leap year, it is best to say the blessing early in the month while the three still has flowers. We have a very nice neighbor who has planted such trees, and they even put up the blessing so everyone can come and do this mitzvah! For more information call Rachael 052-750-0608
