Tu BiShvat: what happens
The Mishnah (Rosh Hashanah 1:1) lists it as one of four new years. It is not a yom tov. Fruit is eaten, especially the kinds the Torah praises in the land of Israel: wheat, barley, grape, fig, pomegranate, olive and date.
The kabbalists developed a Tu BiShvat seder with four cups of wine and fruit, which many communities have adopted. In Israel, trees are planted.
