The Seven Pillars of Living Tree Alliance

Our decisions and actions in all circles of our organization are grounded in these principles. 

1. Regenerative Resiliency
We prioritize our ecological community in our thinking, acting and reflecting.

2. Service
We practice tzedakah (charity) and gemilut chassidim (acts of loving kindness) in work, hospitality, and economy.

3. Social Justice
We are informed by Jewish ethics and are committed to education, civic engagement and nonviolent communication.

4. Inner Work
We bring mindfulness, compassion & understanding to the cultivation of emotional, mental, physical, & spiritual well being.

5. Joy, Gratitude, and Celebration
We keep time to appreciate life each day, refrain from work on Shabbat and celebrate life cycle events with joy.

6. Commitment
We take time to connect with each other, the land and the surrounding community.

7. Ein Soph
We maintain an open space for the continued possibilities of what was, is and will be.
