With our minds rapidly turning to Passover the minute Purim ends, The KA is delighted to advise that in conjunction with the Kesser Torah P&F, there will be a collaborative evening dedicated to making the lead up an easier process.

On Monday evening March 13th the community is invited to KTC for a Pesach wine tasting and wine sale with fabulous discounts offered on orders placed. Other vendors will be showcasing so much as well to make our upcoming Festival of Freedom the most phenomenal one yet!

This will be followed by a live pre-Pesach Q&A session with The KA’s respected Rabbinic Administrator, Rabbi Moshe D. Gutnick (see details below). This is the first Pesach post-pandemic that we have had this opportunity and we encourage all to attend.

Meanwhile in Kosher Land, The KA Team is working hard on our soon-to-be released KA Pesach Directory 5783 – as always, we will keep you posted!
