To There it Returns: Compost
To help children learn about recycling and what does and does not decompose, and to encourage the synagogue to consider doing its own composting. Using the passage from Ecclesiastes as a point of departure, this program can also open into a larger discussion about how nature can replenish itself through a life cycle of birth-death-rebirth.
