"The kit...was so much more than I expected. You offer elegant engineering solutions, a simple and beautiful sukkah and a process that is easy to understand and complete. With thanks from a very satisfied customer who is now passing your URL around her shul."

"This morning we took the 16x24 Big Sukkah down... Everyone was amazed at how easy your kit and plans made things go. But more importantly, our congregants (and Rabbi) love it. It is roomy, and the wood and bamboo mat roof gave it a warm feeling that our old PVC pipe Sukkah sorely lacked".

 Shalom, y'all!
The Sukkah Project™ is our family owned- and operated business offering affordable
sukkah kits for families, schools, and shuls.
It originated from a suggestion by Rabbi Steve Sager of Beth El
Synagogue in Durham NC that we design a simple pre-fab sukkah for members of the community who wanted a backyard sukkah but
lacked experience using tools or building things. The 8x10ft wood & fabric sukkah we came up with proved extremely popular with the locals, and
requests soon started coming in from other communities.
Recognizing
a widespread need, we developed a do-it-yourself version of our pre-fab sukkah--the Sukkah Project™--and introduced it at
the 1995 Biennial of the United Synagogues of Conservative Judaism. It was well received there, and we began selling kits
nationwide through mail order and eventually the Internet. What
started as a sideline project with one product has evolved—twelve years
later—into a full- time family business offering over 20 different Sukkah Kits and everything else needed for
home observance of the Festival. Since 1996, over 10,000 families--in all 50 States and most of the Provinces of Canada--have built their own sukkahs with our kits; for many, it has been their first sukkah ever.
To further promote home sukkah building we offer a "no-hassle" Group Discount Program.
Here's how it works:
Groups who wish to participate are sent a one-page brochure in PDF format that describes the Kits we offer. We inscribe this with a unique code # that folks in your community may use to order any in-stock family sukkah kit or accessory directly from us at a 5% discount. In return you'd agree to distribute this flyer in any manner you choose--hard copy or electronic--and instruct folks to use your group's code when they order from our website. As orders are received prompt shipment will be made direct to the customer. We have no deadlines, and no minimum number of orders are required, but we advise that orders be placed as soon as possible since we often sell out of some sizes as the Holiday nears. .
This procedure is the simplest approach for everybody, but if you prefer to take orders locally and call in a single group order, the same 5% discount will apply. Also, if we can send it all in one bulk shipment there will be a considerable savings on the shipping cost, which will be passed on to you. Email Steve at stevehenry7@nc.rr.com if you'd like to sign up.
The Sukkah Project™ is our labor of love. We value suggestions for improving our kits; let us know how your sukkah turns out, and please send photos for our website Sukkah Gallery.
B' Shalom,
Judith
