Fruit for Rosh Hashanah

The ritual of eating fruit during the holiday reminds people to appreciate the fruits of the earth and being alive to enjoy them.

A pomegranate is often used as a “new fruit” – meaning, a fruit not yet eaten this season. Its abundant seeds symbolize fertility, hopes for good deeds and merits in the upcoming year.
