Matzoh 2020 Next Steps:
Help Give the Soil a Massage
4:30-5:30pm
Friday, July 20 (followed by Kabbalat Shabbat Potluck dinner with Rabbi Or Rose)
Friday, August 3 (followed by Kabbalat Shabbat),
Now that the buckwheat cover crop is planted at Zfarm, it needs to be tended. Can you spare an hour to help weed our 1/4 acre? Weeding is essential to "supporting the earth," says Farmer Katy Lince, one of Matzoh 2020's organizers. "Think of it as giving the soil a massage."
If you can help, please email Fran Snyder with your available dates. And bring a hoe, if you have one.
At: Zfarm, 225 Carpenter Road, Ghent NY

TCS Backyard Sale to Benefit
Perfect Ten, Hudson
Sunday, August 5th, 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
At the Synagogue
Ready to donate that "someday" stuff in your basement, garage or attic to benefit a terrific cause? Then reserve a table in the TCS backyard for a community sale to benefit Perfect Ten, a Hudson, NY after-school program for young women that builds character and resilience through community involvement.
The day of the sale, your table will be ready for you and you'll have help unloading your car. Each table is responsible for pricing its own items and taking its own payment--cash or checks made out to Perfect Ten). You must reserve your table by Friday, July 27, and you or your representative must be present on sale day. Items not sold will be picked up by a local charity, if desired.
To reserve a table, email TCS member and former head of the synagogue's Social Action committee, Craig Bender
