We will bless the harvest, asking ourselves what we each have brought to fruition this year. And we will recite tefilat geshem, the request for rain, and honor all the ways water serves us. Please bring Garden fruits, vegetables, and nuts to shareA rain stick if you have oneLayers (we'll be outside and it might get chilly!)
