This week we celebrate the arrival of fall and our new(ish) school year by meeting at Drew Farm for apple picking and brown bag lunch (see details below, and in your weekly school Hadashot). All are invited — students, parents, siblings, friends! In the event of inclement weather, families will receive an email notification that regular classes will take place from 10-12 at the temple.

All welcome!
Apple Picking at Drew Farm
Sunday, October 14, 10 a.m., weather permitting
All are welcome to join us at Drew Farm, 31 Tadmuck Rd, Westford.
Please allow time to purchase a bag for your apples ($8/peck, ~5 lbs). You may either ride up the hill to the orchard in a tractor-pulled wagon or walk. Bring a picnic lunch to enjoy in the orchard.
Temple Clean Up
Sunday, October 14, 1 p.m. (after apple picking)
Please join us in helping to sort and pack TEMV items in preparation for our upcoming move and to bring other items to the dumpster. (If you can’t lift heavy items, we’ll find some light things that you can pack.) Please bring some sturdy cardboard boxes if you have them-–or stop by a grocery or beverage store to see if they have some you can take.
We will also be having a curbside Moving Sale of some items that we know we can’t or won’t use. If you can help us with the sale, even for part of the time, either by moving items or greeting neighbors as they come by, please e-mail Sue. Please also stop over to see if there are things you can use yourself!
Thank Yous
Thank you to the 20 volunteers from TEMV who donated time to help with our Moving Sale during a holiday weekend! The event came together quickly and was a great success–we couldn’t have done it without your help. There are still some items that could use a good home; see Phebe if interested.
We contributed 416 pounds of food for housebound people and their pets during our high holiday food collection.
