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.
For August, SAGE’s headline session will cover the algal bloom off SA’s coasts, with guests that will give us scientific, cultural and activist perspectives. Come find out what the algal bloom is, how the community is taking action, and how you can get involved! Our oceans are in crisis, and we can all step up to help.
And as always, anyone can come run a session, whether it’s on the theme or on anything else they like.
Some (optional) things you might want to bring…
🍛A plate of food to share
🌱Veggies or seedlings for this month’s swap
🧵Clothes or materials for the mending corner if you would like to do some mending - plus some coins for the SAGE community op shop!
Run through of how the night will (roughly) go...

5:15-5:45: Welcome, Community Announcements.
5:45-7:45: Open Space Workshop Sessions.
