Yom Yarok: Green Day at Tifereth Israel • Sunday, February 5th, 10:00 a.m.

In honor of Tu B’Shevat (the birthday of the trees) we’re going to see how we can all become more proactive about taking better care of our homes, communities, and planet. We won’t be green with envy but, instead, become more green knowledgeable.

Throughout the morning, until 1:00 p.m., we’ll have representatives join us from various businesses and organizations to offer information, education, valuable tips, and suggestions to help us become more aware of our surroundings.

Be sure to come early for
the World Wide Wrap sponsored by our Men’s Club.

Yom Yarok Partners:

San Diego Master Gardeners • Think Blue, City of San Diego
San Diego Gas & Electric • Growums • One Earth Recycling
Jewish National Fund • Upcycle • Suzie’s Farm • San Diego Solar Install
 and more…

We’ll learn what we can do to make a difference in our daily lives as well as considering long range goals.

In addition, One Earth Recycling will have bins available to collect your recyclable materials including:

  • ELECTRONICS: including TVs, computers, monitors, VCRs — One Earth Recycling is part of a three-generation, 30+ year old company that is among the pioneers of the electronic scrap industry in California and they guarantee identity security/data destruction in the case of data storage devices like hard drives and mobile phones. There is no charge for recycling electronics and 5¢ will be donated to TIS for every pound of electronics recycled through One Earth.
