What We Do

Shade
We bring communal canopies for shade to make our oasis of chill. Look for our Shabbat Tent flags and tents in car camping or sometimes in the vending area. We always post our location on Facebook and Twitter as soon as we have our spot.
Water
To function properly at festivals our body requires a lot of water, and 2 liters of water daily is the minimum outside of festival life - much more if your dancing away the day in the hot sun. Always maintain proper hydration! We always try to have a lot of water on hand for you.
Kabbalat Shabbat
We gather on Friday afternoon as the suns begins to set to welcome Shabbat with song. We light candles and get our Shabbat on together! We always bring in Shabbat early to enable people who are going to shows to still participate.
Challah
What is Shabbat without challah? Not much. Enjoy ours or bring your own, as we brake brea together and kick off Shabbat. Check Facebook for details on each festivals meal schedule and program. Sometimes we can provide full-on meals for all Shabbat, sometimes it's pot-luck .
Late-Night Havdallah Jam
Marking the end the Shabbat, we gather at the Tent after the last bands have played on Saturday night for a rocking Havdallah. Bring your instruments, fire jugglers, and sweet smelling spices.
