We're excited that the Earth Etudes for Elul continue despite Rabbi Katy's retirement! Here's part of the intro to the etudes and if you follow the link you can sign up for them.
Here come the Earth Etudes for Elul to aid us on our journey through the month of Elul. Each of the Etudes connects in some way to the Earth and to teshuvah — change, return, repentance — reminding us that we are in deep connection with all that surrounds us. We are part of an intertwined whole that is so much greater than ourselves and so incredibly diverse and rich and amazing; we are never alone.
There's a lot of inspiration in the etudes, so we encourage you to sign up!

We're excited to share our new Blessing Builder (link in the comments) with you! We've created a tool that lets you personalize Jewish blessings in ways that feel meaningful to you. Whether you prefer Hebrew with gender-neutral language, specific divine references that resonate with your spirituality, or beautiful translations—this builder puts the sacred words in your hands.
It's still growing (like all good things!), but we couldn't wait to share it with our community. Perfect for holidays, food blessings, or moments of gratitude in nature.
Give it a try and help us make it even better with your feedback!
