On a perfect autumn day, about 30 SAGE members and friends drove through the dirt roads of the Deua National Park to a wonderful farm on the Deua River.
The property is the Home of Michael and Wendy Hulse. Michael is one of the founders of the SAGE project and is a hands on farmer.
There was so much to see and do that we all felt both enthused by the projects under way and some were a little overwhelmed at the scale of Michael’s vision.
