Challah for the Environment with Beth Ricanati, MD x Challah Back Girls

Come join Beth Ricanati, MD and Challah Back Girls™ for a special challah workshop on Thursday, April 28th! Not only is this the first week after Passover (so yes, we will be demonstrating the ‘key-shaped’ challah which is customary for this Shabbat), but the month of April is also Earth Month and an important time to highlight the environment, so we’ll discuss that too. We will be donating all of the proceeds of this workshop to Challah Back Girls' partnered organization of the month, Intersectional Environmentalist—a nonprofit organization focused on climate justice.
