Sages Sensory Garden

The Sensory Garden at Sages Cottage Farm is a tranquil, inclusive space designed to support calm and connection. Open to visitors, the garden invites you to slow down and immerse yourself in nature through sight, sound and touch.

Created with input from Sages clients and staff and designed by the award‑winning team at Urban Discovery, the garden features tactile paths, gentle water features, interactive sculptures and quiet seating areas. Creative sensory elements offer places to pause, reflect and recharge.

Sages Flower Farm

Our Flower Farm is a vibrant, working space and a place visitors can soak up the view and support inclusive employment in action.

Currently employing 10 people with disability, the flower farm provides real‑world horticultural experience, from planting and harvesting to bouquet making. The long‑term vision is to support up to 15 supported employees, building skills and confidence on pathways toward open employment.

View the many rows of colourful seasonal blooms, including dahlias, native flowers and foliage, and the feature rows of stunning rare Paeonia rockii peony trees.

Flowers grown on site are available to purchase at the farmgate shop.

Sages Flower Farm and Sensory Garden have been made possible by the generosity of the Opalgate Foundation and an anonymous philanthropic partner.

Wetlands Walk

Located alongside the café, our wetlands walk is nearly 400m of tranquil accessible pathway around the water. You will hear plenty of birdlife and the occasional frog. The wetlands and island are home to our resident geese who you will see wandering all over the farm.

Bushland Walk

The Guardians sculptures stand tall and proud at the entry to our bushland walk. Spend some quiet time in the wilderness as you walk through our unique setting that is home to rare plants including orchids indigenous to the Peninsula. You will hear the distinctive sound of Bellbirds as you wander the path as well as many other bird varieties.
