Shmurah-matzah is the matzah with the highest standards in kashrut, tradition and taste. Handmade shmurah-matzah prepared especially for the seder plate, is the optimum choice for the Seder nights. Unlike machine matzah which is square, hand-made matzot are typically round and produced the same way Jews have been baking matzah for over 3000 years!

Become a part of this excited tradition and enhance your seder table with your very own box of handmade shmurah-matzah. Baked fresh in NY, each box includes approximately 7 matzot and cost $25. Limited supply is available so place your order as soon as possible.

Re-learn one of the most ancient forms of bread making and gain insight into the crunchy symbol of Passover.

At this exciting, hands on, educational experience, the children will thresh wheat stalks, winnow the chaff, grind the grain in a hand powered stone mill and sift out the bran. They will then use this whole grain flour to make their own replica of traditional hand baked Matzah- the way our forefathers did three thousand three hundred years ago, in Egypt.

Matanot LaEvyonim is one of the four mitzvot of Purim, to help at least two poor people. Concern for the needy is a year-round responsibility, but on Purim it is a special mitzvah to remember the poor. This is best done by giving charity in the amount of the cost of a meal so that a less fortunate person can also enjoy their Purim seudah, another one of the Purim mitzvot.

Many of us are not personally acquainted with people in dire need to whom we can give these gifts on Purim day. That is why we are partnering with Od Yosef Chai. Od Yosef Chai supports over 8,000 needy families in Israel, including widows and orphans, newly immigrants, terrorist victims, the sick and elderly, especially before the holidays.
