We have been celebrating Pesach for centuries, and this year feels different than any other. Gathering together as best we can seems more important than ever. Let's come together before Passover with some incredible educators, gatherers, guiders, nourishers -- bringing us together to enhance our Pesach seders. Because being together right now is most important of all. As always, the conversation won't be complete without you at our table. We want to be together with you. Tell a friend or family member to join in -- we would love to meet her, too!
