Join us for an exclusive experience at Santa Fe Botanical Garden (SFBG) with nationally acclaimed author and naturalist Priyanka Kumar. We will bring together literature, nature, and conversation in one of Santa Fe’s most beautiful settings.
Coffee and light bites will be available as guests arrive, followed by an engaging presentation with Priyanka that concludes with a Q&A session. She will speak about the practice of being a naturalist and the inspiration behind her celebrated nature books including Conversations with Birds and The Light Between, Apple Trees: Rediscovering the Wild Through a Beloved American Fruit, and her forthcoming book The Grassland Queen. Afterward, discover the Garden’s seasonal beauty on a special tour and enjoy all-day access to continue exploring at your leisure.
