Positively Petaluma recently reported on the 150 year history celebration for our city's Jewish Community. This morning Director and Producer Mac Weinstock released a new documentary video that has narration and interviews.
During our famed "Egg Basket of the World" in 30's and 40s thousands of chicken farmers were jewish farming families. More came from Russia after WWI in postwar years. The Petaluma Jewish Community Center was dedicated on 740 Western Ave near the downtown in 1925.
