Reminding you that the New Year brings you the spectacular Shana Ba’Gina Calendar / A Year in the Garden created by artist and gatherer Ilana Stein. If you haven’t yet met this amazing creation, Shana Ba’Gina is a detailed, illustrated calendar that is also a monthly guide to domestic Israeli gardening and nature. This product celebrates the direct connection between time and seasons with local agriculture and gathering. Each month brings about changes – in the field and forest, in the garden, and in your food. With the upcoming sabbatical Shmita year, Ilana created a special edition dedicated solely to indoor home gardening: vegetables on the windowsill, greens in the kitchen, hanging plants in the bathtub, hydroponics, terrarium and many other solutions to bring nature indoors.
A Year in the Garden comes highly recommended by the Chubeza staff!
A Year in the Garden products include a hanging/tabletop calendar, a weekly journal, and magnets with seeding schedules. Take a peek at Ilana’s distinctly charming calendar right here.

THIS WEEK’S NEWLETTER IS ON PARTIAL VACATION
But, in the spirit of our Summer Veggie Boxes, we’re happy to send you this most appropriate New Yorker cartoon (even though the vegetables pictured are more fitting for Europe/N. America).
KEEP SMILING!
