For 125 years, Sierra Club Outings has brought people together to explore, enjoy, and protect the places we love. Since our first outing in 1901, we’ve believed that experiencing nature firsthand can inspire a lifelong commitment to caring for it.
The Sierra Sage Group of South Orange County is a part of the Sierra Club, the nation’s oldest, largest and most influential grassroots environmental membership organization. Our group is one of 14 regional groups within the Sierra Club’s Angeles Chapter representing the over 43,000 members of the Sierra Club residing in Orange and Los Angeles Counties. Together with the Orange County and Puente Hills groups we number almost ten thousand members throughout Orange County.
Get Involved
Concerned about climate change or other environmental or conservation issues in your neighborhood? We educate, advocate, and take action to protect the environment. Or maybe you wish your elected officials reflected your concerns? We seek out, endorse, elect, and support environmental champions for local, state, and congressional offices. Sierra Sage members also enjoy getting outdoors to explore our wilderness areas both local and far afield. We help maintain the trails in our local areas. And we have fun and make new friends while we protect, enjoy, and explore our planet. Regardless of your interests or abilities, there is a place for you within the Sierra Sage community. Together we are changemakers. Together we are powerful.
