36-pg booklet with anything and everything you ever wanted to know in order to tie in spirit, SoCal ecology, and Sukkot!
FromSoil2Soul’s Sukkot Guide is an earth-rooted companion for the harvest festival and a leading-edge experiment in place-based Jewish ritual, bringing ancient text, seasonal ecology, herbal knowledge, grief tending, and embodied practice into conversation with the Southern California bioregion. It weaves the Four Species, the four directions, and the turn from harvest gratitude toward prayers for rain into simple rituals grounded in the actual ecology beneath our feet: final harvests, leaves feeding the soil’s living network, coastal fog, dry hills, shifting winds, and the movement from dew toward rain. With reflections on the sukkah’s permeability and fragility as teachers, the guide invites us to notice the subtle seasonal thresholds we might otherwise miss. Practical, poetic, and deeply rooted in place, it offers a contemporary Jewish practice of belonging—one that lets the Hebrew calendar become embodied in the land, weather, plants, and waters of Los Angeles.
