Where we're located Jewish Links Home Page Sukkot Sukkot is a harvest holiday that is celebrated for eight days. We build sukkahs , huts with wall and a transparent roof so we can see the sky. The sukkah reminds us of the huts the farmers used to build when they stayed in their fields overnight during harvest time. Sukkahs are decorated with branches, leaves, fruits and vegetables.
Many families eat their meals in their sukkah .
Symbols of the holiday are the lulav , made of myrtle, palm and willow branches, and the etrog , a fruit shaped like a lemon.
