She-heĥeyanu is recited before eating a seasonal fruit for the first time during the season. This means that right before eating, the person says two blessings: She-heĥeyanu and the standard Ha-etz (or Ha-adama), either order is acceptable. She-heĥeyanu is not recited on a fruit which grows year-round or which is canned or dried and then eaten year-round.

    Was it good? Did you encounter an issue? Have a suggestion for improvement? We'd love to hear from you!

    The Jewish tradition with all of its mitzvot, practices, and ambitions for the perfection of the world, in the life of the individual, the family, society and the nation, in the cycle of life and the cycle of the year, on weekdays, on Sabbaths and on holidays.
