SAVE THE DATE for our first
Shabbaton (June 15–16)
Our first Shabbat weekend in the North Bay —
camping, creek mikveh, hiking, relaxing, and
celebrating a full day of Shabbat in nature
surrounded by community!
Wilderness Torah awakens and celebrates the earth-based traditions of Judaism to nourish the connections between self, community, earth, and Spirit.
We create pluralistic, multi-generational community celebrations to reconnect us to the earth-based traditions of Judaism.
Everyone is welcome at Wilderness Torah Events: Jews, people with other faiths and backgrounds, interfaith couples and families, the LGBTQIA community, people of color — anyone who feels called to attend. We offer a range of activities so that people of all backgrounds and experiences can plug in, and we partner with inclusivity nonprofits on programming and training.
At the intersection of an intense love for nature and Judaism, Wilderness Torah unearths a lot of golden wisdom for how to live your life, practice your faith, and share your revelations with others.
