The Euro-Asian Jewish Congress extends its warmest congratulations on the holiday of Tu BiShvat!
Also known as the "New Year for Trees," the 15th day of the month of Shevat in ancient Israel marked the boundary between agricultural harvest years. It was determined that a tithe for the Jerusalem Temple must be set aside from all fruit ripening before the 15th of Shevat, while any fruit ripening thereafter was attributed to the following fiscal year.
