Massive Post Shmittah Planting Project in Yerushalayim

After Rosh Hashanah, with the end of the shmittah year, the City Beautification Department in the Yerushalayim municipality has begun a widespread campaign to plant over 50,000 plants of different types throughout its environs, as no form of planting had been carried out during the shmittah year in accordance with the Bais Hamedrash for Halacha in Settlement and the instruction of Yerushalayim Mayor Uri Lupolianski.
