Fire Circle
One Sunday a Month, November 2023 – February 2024 (1:00 pm – 5:00 pm)
100% OUTDOORS • MONTHLY • JEWISH CYCLES OF NATURE
Where Kids can be Kids, Have Fun, and Learn—OUTSIDE!
Program Details
During this monthly experience, we will awaken our senses in the outdoors, learn about nature, and connect to our roots through storytelling, food, fire, music and ancient sacred skills. Our passionate, fun-loving, experienced outdoor educators guide participants through hands-on activities. Each month, we focus on a seasonal wilderness or farm skill that builds personal and collective growth, self-awareness and self-confidence, interconnectedness and responsibility.
Like a healthy fire, Fire Circle is the warm up to our Rite of Passage program. We integrate the rhythms of Jewish life and the Hebrew calendar with the cycles of nature and human development. The Rite of Passage program will focus on the internal aspects of becoming b’nai mitzvot and can serve as concurrent to a traditional B’nai Mitzvah or a stand-alone experience. It will center on practices and experiences that connect all participants more deeply to themselves, Jewish identity and the human and wild ecosystems in which they live.
