Happy Tu BiShvat! The annual 'birthday of the trees' is the perfect time to reflect on the LAND of Israel. Long before it was cool to be an environmentalist, Israelis were singing about the environment. From the earliest days of the state, agriculture has been an integral part of Israeli society, and there’s no shortage of songs about trees, fruit, agriculture, nature, and our beloved homeland. Thanks to the help of our Israeli Music Community on Facebook, you'll hear a fantastic selection of 'all-natural' songs this week on Israel Hour Radio.

While you're listening, tell us...how do YOU observe this special day? What are your memories of Tu Bishvat? What fruits and vegetables taste better in Israel than anywhere else in the world? Be sure to let us know. Chag sameach! (Original Air Date: 1/24/21)
