FOPOS Tree Tenders, FOPOS

Tuesday January 6, 2026
11:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Looking to lend a hand this winter? Join the FOPOS Tree Tenders and nurture the forest through its peaceful winter season. Attend a Tree Tenders training session on either Tuesday, January 6th or Saturday, January 17th from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. As a Tree Tender, you'll work independently at the Preserve to gently care for the native trees and shrubs, use hand pruners to clear invasive vines from protective cages, and monitor our new plantings. Adults may work independently, while minors can work under the supervision of a parent/guardian. Step outside, make a difference, and help the forest grow stronger one tree at a time.

Baking the Galette des Rois – Cooking Demo, Alliance Francaise Princeton

6:30 PM

In France, at the beginning of the year, families everywhere are enjoying their Galette des Rois, or King Cake. A tradition dating back to the middle-ages, these festive cakes were created to celebrate Epiphany or the arrival of the 3 Magi to Bethlehem. The Galette itself is a beautiful golden pastry, filled with a delicious frangipane (almond cream) and a surprise. Despite its elegance and richness, the Galette des Rois is relatively easy to make and will certainly impress your family and friends.

Join us on Tuesday evening, January 6, 2026 at 6:30pm with our Treasurer, Jim Lesser as he demonstrates how to prepare an authentic Galette des Rois, and if you care to, please feel free to cook alongside Jim to create your own Galette!! Click here for the Recipe.
