SUMMARY:Diane Kristoff to Speak at KSB
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, September 16\, 2026\, Diane Kristoff will speak on “Discover the Wonder – An Adventure Approach to Learning About Nature!” Doors open at 4:30 with the presentation starting at 5:00. Join us at the KSB EcoHub\, 360 Brewer Road in Sedona. \nDiane will take participants on an adventure to learn first-hand about Sedona’s native plants and their uses by indigenous peoples and wildlife\, identify local pollinators\, examine the region’s unique geology\, and learn principles of responsible land stewardship. Our adventure begins inside the KSB meeting room. You’ll experience a shortened version of the KSB’s Discover the Wonder field trips now offered at no cost to area middle and high school students to learn about Sedona’s geologic history and the Leave No Trace 7 Principles in a fun and interactive way. \nThen the group will conclude outdoors with a self-guided exploration of the KSB educational garden using a Field Journal developed by Kristoff and guided by KSB Adventure Guides.   The program kicked off in 2026 with a grant from the Arizona Community Foundation of Yavapai County\, and will expand in the 2026-2027 school year in part supported by a new grant from the City of Sedona. This program is now providing hundreds of students the opportunity to learn about nature interactively in a meaningful\, memorable\, and enjoyable way. \nAdventurer\, author and award-winning educator Diane Kristoff earned her degree in geology with an emphasis in paleontology from Arizona State University\, where she also received her teaching certification and gifted endorsement. She began her career teaching eighth-grade science in Tempe\, Arizona. There\, she founded an environmental awareness club and guided as many as 50 eighth-graders backpacking into the deserts and canyons of Arizona and Utah. She has inspired hundreds of teens to learn how to survive in the wilds\, become courageous adventurers\, and appreciate and respect nature. Regarded as a master educator\, Kristoff was awarded the prestigious Silver Apple Award by Channel 3 and the Dial Corporation and received the Arizona Science Teacher of the Year Award by the Salt River Project.

SUMMARY:Joan Meiners to Speak at KSB
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, October 21\, 2026\, Journalist and Ecologist Joan Meiners will share “The Arizona Trail: An 850-mile Mountain Bike Exploration of Climate Change” Doors open at 4:30 with the presentation starting at 5:00. Join us at the KSB EcoHub\, 360 Brewer Road in Sedona. \nAlong the 850-mile Arizona Trail\, which spans the length of the state from Utah to Mexico\, diverse ecosystems showcase how climate change is actively altering life as we know it across the Southwest. During fall 2025\, The Arizona Republic newspaper’s climate reporter\, who earned a Ph.D. in ecology before becoming an award-winning journalist\, spent seven weeks traveling the full trail on her mountain bike to witness these threats\, document their impacts\, and consult with experts on solutions. \nRich with photos and video from the journey as well as scientific expertise and cultural context\, this presentation takes audiences through the state’s biggest environmental challenges and opportunities\, mile by mile. Joan Meiners’ trail journey is a scenic and dynamic window into some of Arizona’s most pressing problems\, told from the frontlines of journalistic exploration through literal living landscapes. This program is made possible by Arizona Humanities. \nJoan Meiners is the climate reporter for The Arizona Republic\, the state’s largest newspaper. In this role\, she has won awards for her investigations into electricity generation\, her deep-dive series on the intersection of extreme heat and housing shortages in the state\, and her commentary on how Arizonans think and approach the existential challenges of climate change. She has previously written and received recognition for her environmental work in outlets like Discover Magazine\, National Geographic and the Washington Post Magazine. Before being lured into the colorful and dynamic world of journalism\, she completed a Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Ecology and published research papers on the biodiversity of native bees. She spends most of her free time trail running\, backpacking\, or mountain biking through as many diverse landscapes and regions as she can.

SUMMARY:Jeffrey Lazos Ferns to Speak at KSB
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, November 18\, 2026\, Jeffrey Lazos Ferns\, Chef and Artist will share “Living Landscapes: Food\, Memory and the Sonoran Desert” Doors open at 4:30 with the presentation starting at 5:00. Join us at the KSB EcoHub\, 360 Brewer Road in Sedona. \nJeffrey will share how to explore Arizona’s Indigenous Foodways and the Sonoran Desert as a living archive of cultural knowledge\, focusing on how Indigenous foodways and ecological relationships have shaped Arizona communities over generations. Through stories of indigenous plants\, including the Sonoran Desert tree pantry\, Sonoran Desert cactus pantry\, and the Sonoran Desert shrub apothecary\, the presentation highlights how plant\, food\, and wildlife traditions are deeply tied to land\, identity\, and survival. Ferns connects desert ecology to themes of history\, migration\, and cultural resilience. Audiences will see Arizona’s landscapes not as passive settings but as active forces shaping community life\, offering insight into sustainable practices and cultural continuity in the face of environmental change. Note: This presentation will include tasting samples from the Sonoran Desert plant scape. This program is made possible by Arizona Humanities. \nJeffrey Lazos Ferns is an Arizona-based arts and culture professional\, educator\, and curator whose work centers on Indigenous foodways\, Sonoran Desert ecology\, and community storytelling. Through interdisciplinary programming and public engagement\, he explores how landscapes shape cultural identity\, memory\, and lived experience in the Southwest. He works with organizations including the Arizona American Indian Tourism Association and the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation on Indigenous Food Ways and Sonoran Desert Plant Hikes/Landscape tastings and is the founder and voice behind initiatives such as the Arizona Indigenous Culinary Experience and the Arizona Indigenous Food Symposium. His work brings together chefs\, knowledge keepers\, artists\, and community members to elevate Indigenous perspectives and deepen public understanding of Arizona’s living landscapes.
