Keeping Kosher In Jackson Hole
We
frequently receive inquiries about keeping kosher in Jackson Hole.
There
are no kosher restaurants or kosher meat for sale in Jackson Hole. We are
aware of no one who lives in Jackson who keeps kosher. We know
people who send ahead kosher meat for visits here and one visitor
who brought his own meat and grill and stayed at a hotel where he could
grill.
There
are vegetarian dishes in many restaurants. You will find some of
the nationally branded kosher products at the grocery stores in
Jackson. The major grocery stores are approximately 2 miles
from the square, but easy to drive or bus to.
Mission
Statement
The Jewish Community of Jackson Hole is committed to creating a
diverse Jewish presence that unites us, celebrates our faith, and promotes
tolerance in the greater Jackson
community. We strive to engage all families and individuals in
spirituality, education, tzadakah, and the joys of Jewish life.
