In this month the Hebrew month of Nissan, it is our custom to bless over the fruit trees where we praise Hashem “for creating a world that lacks nothing bearing good creations and good trees for the enjoyment of mankind”. This is a blessing that we bless once a year while observing fruit trees in blossom. We celebrate the joy of rebirth, growth and germination as the sunlight increases and buds appear everywhere- on the flowers, on the trees. This paves the way for our Passover holiday – the holiday of redemption. Amen
