Saging the World was created by Rose Ramirez (artist, photographer, filmmaker, writer, and
California Indian Basketweaver of Chumash and Yaqui descent) and Deborah Small (artist,
photographer, writer, and professor emerita in the School of Arts at CSUSM) in partnership with
the California Native Plant Society. “We hope the film and the campaign will inspire people to
boycott wildcrafted sage products, grow their own native plants, and rethink their relationship
with white sage and plants more broadly,” said CNPS Director of Education & Engagement David Bryant
