Sukkot - Building A Sukkah

Building A Sukkah

The sukkah walls can be constructed of any material (wood, canvas, aluminum siding, sheets). The walls can be free-standing or include the sides of a building or porch. The roof must be of organic material, known as S'chach, such as leafy tree overgrowth or palm fronds. It is customary to decorate the interior of the sukkah with hanging decorations, the Seven Species.

    Little Bill Daggett: I don’t deserve this. To die like this. I was building a house.
    Will Munny: Deserve’s got nothing to do with it.
    David Webb Peoples, screenwriter. Little Bill Daggett (Gene Hackman)

    ... what’s been building since the 1980’s is a new kind of social Darwinism that blames poverty and crime and the crisis of our youth on a breakdown of the family. That’s what will last after this flurry on family values.
    Stephanie Coontz (b. 1944)
