In the late 1980s, Rabbi Steve Sager of Beth El Synagogue in Durham, North Carolina, asked Steve Herman to design a simple sukkah kit for congregants who had never built anything. In 1996 (5757) Steve and his wife Judith launched The Sukkah Project®. Steve's nephew Abram took over in 2015 and moved the business to Colorado, settling in Grand Junction in 2017. It is still family-owned, and every kit is still assembled by hand in the USA. The tubular kit at ModernTribe uses pre-cut galvanized steel tubing and welded corner fittings, with mesh or canvas walls. In 2026 Abram launched The Sukkah Foundation to give free sukkahs to families who couldn't otherwise afford one.
