Anniversary Party Weekend in Mount Vernon, WA

This business that started on a whim on the kitchen table has grown to be more than just a family owned business. We have gained so much from our journey as accidental entrepreneurs. When I look back I see a lot of bravery on our end but most of all I see community support and deep connection. I remember every word of encouragement, shared suggestion, compliment, and story of connecting via elSage.

I often think of elSage as a group project- seeking to meet the moment and the community the best way we can. Striving to make a difference through commerce and community. Bringing activism into everyday actions. I’m ever-thankful to do work that is varied and creative, interesting and dynamic. I’m grateful for all of our team members over the years and most of all, for you. You’re the reason we’re still here. Thanks for supporting what we do. We hope you’ll celebrate with us this weekend, let’s party today through Sunday! Read below for all the details ⬇️
