Why
SAGE is a community for all folks who love and care for our planet. Our monthly gatherings are a space to nourish each other, so that we can nourish our world.
Join us for an evening of delicious food, hearty discussion and new skills. The night will start with a shared meal, then we will move into community announcements, then into open space workshops, with lots of space for social breaks throughout.

After a run of big headline sessions, we want to return to what makes SAGE special - community creating the space together. So this month we’re keeping things simple: BYO SAGE!
Bring an idea, a skill, a conversation you want to have, or a question you’ve been sitting with to our open space format. Whether it’s a workshop, a discussion, a craft table, a campaign update, or something totally unexpected - as always, SAGE is yours to shape.
Not sure what you could run? Here are a few sparks:
- A skill you want to share
- A campaign or issue you care about
- A discussion about something you’re learning
- A craft, repair or creative session
- A conversation about the future of SAGE
- A question you want the community to explore
We’ll start the night with a short icebreaker on how to run an open space, and a reflection on why we’re part of SAGE - what brings us here, and what keeps your personal flame alive.
And exciting news: after several months away, the beloved Mending Corner is back! Community member Deb will be reopening the space for repairing clothes and sharing simple mending skills. Bring something that needs a little love.
Some (optional) things you might want to bring…
- A plate of food to share
- Veggies or seedlings for this month’s swap
Run through of how the night will (roughly) go...
- 4:30-5:15: Arriving, Sharing food.
- 5:15-5:45: Welcome, Community Announcements.
- 5:45-7:45: Open Space Workshop Sessions.
- 7:45: Closing Circle.
All welcome. Come anytime that suits you. See you there!
