As the leaves start to change from green to gold, days become shorter and the air becomes a little more crisp, many of us turn our thoughts to the fall season. For Jewish families, this natural transition is the “Season of our Joy” or Sukkot, pronounced “Sue COAT.” The holiday officially begins at sunset on Oct. 8 and ends Oct. 15 at nightfall. Sukkot is a traditional Jewish holiday to remember the 40 years that their ancestors spent wandering from Egypt to Israel in the dessert—all while living in temporary shelters. This seven-day celebration is a joyful holiday rich in traditions and many look forward to the holiday throughout the year, including residents at Cadbury at Cherry Hill.
