Shoresh Jewish Environmental Programs

Shoresh Jewish Environmental Programs runs environmental education and stewardship initiatives rooted in Jewish values and traditions. The organization connects Toronto-area Jewish communities with nature through programs that teach sustainable living, ecological literacy, and climate action grounded in Jewish teaching about tikkun olam (repairing the world). Shoresh offers workshops, outdoor experiences, and community gardens that help participants understand their relationship with the natural world while exploring how Jewish texts and ethics inform environmental responsibility. The charity works with schools, congregations, and families to build environmental consciousness across generations, combining ecological science with Jewish heritage to inspire lasting behavioral change toward sustainability and land stewardship.
