*THIS MESSAGE IS ONLY FOR MASHGICHIM WHO PROVIDE SUPERVISION OF YOSHON*
* *
The new Chodosh season will start with oats becoming Chodosh at the end
of July or early August. Wheat and barley may be Chodosh shortly after
the start of August. I would like to ask you to urgently forward to me a
list of all products and establishments for which you provide Yoshon
hashgocho for the upcoming season. I need this by mid July to make sure
that up-to-date and accurate information is passed on to the Yoshon
consumer in the first issue of the Guide to Chodosh.
You may forward this information to me in one of several ways:
- Email to yher...@yahoo.com <mailto:yher...@yahoo.com>
- Fax to 845-356-5999
- By US mail to Y. Herman, 20 Sylvan Road, Monsey, NY 10952
- By recording a message on the Chodosh Hot Line, 718-305-5133.
A few months ago, I sent out the revised issue of the Mashgiach’s Guide
to Chodosh and Yoshon by mail to many mashgichim and hashgocho
organizations. (See details about this Guide below.) If you did not
receive it and want a printed copy (instead of the email version that is
available), please contact me.
Thank you and tizku l’mitzvos
Yoseph Herman

MASHGIACH’S GUIDE TO CHODOSH AND YOSHON IS AVAILABLE
The Mashgiach’s Guide to Chodosh and Yoshon has been updated and is now
available by email or US surface mail. The regular Guide to Chodosh is
aimed at consumers. It contains names of foods and establishments and
tries to provide guidance about which are Yoshon and which are not.
Conversely, the Mashgiach’s Guide contains almost no specific brand name
information. Rather, it provides detailed technical information to help
the mashgiach provide hashgochos for Yoshon. You are welcome to download
a copy of the Mashgiach’s Guide by sending a blank email to ONE of the
following addresses:
mashgi...@sefer.org
mashgi...@moruda.com <mailto:mashgi...@moruda.com>
Printed copies of this Guide are available. Rabbonim and mashgichim can
request that a copy be mailed to them free of charge via US surface mail
by providing their full mailing address by either (1) sending an email
request, or (2) recording a message on the Chodosh Hot Line
718-305-5133, or (3) sending a written request to Y. Herman 20 Sylvan
Road, Monsey, NY 10952 (make sure that you include a note with your full
address and the request for the Mashgiach’s Guide.)
Those who are not rabbonim or mashgichim may order a copy of this Guide
by sending $1 plus their full name and address to Y. Herman, 20 Sylvan
Road, Monsey, NY 10952
