A Shared Community Space
It's Our Space
At Origin, our vision is to create a welcoming, shared community space where everyone feels at home. As a 'third space' beyond the confines of home and work, we aim to be a hub where people can gather, connect, and collaborate. Whether you’re here to relax, learn, or get involved in community projects, Origin offers a place for meaningful engagement and positive impact. We’re proud to be a plant-based space, reflecting our commitment to sustainability and ethical living. Our dedication extends to serving the very best coffee, ethically sourced to ensure that every cup is from B-Corp registered companies and always using environmentally conscious practices. At Origin, we believe that small choices—like enjoying a cup of the finest coffee—can make a big difference.
From our organic gardening methods to our efforts in promoting environmental stewardship, every aspect of Origin is designed to inspire and empower. We want to be more than just a place to visit; we want to be a space where friendships are forged, ideas are shared, and together, we can create lasting change. Whether you’re interested in hands-on activities like gardening, enjoying a perfectly brewed coffee, or simply seeking a tranquil place to connect with others, Origin offers something for everyone. Join us in building a vibrant, inclusive community space where we all contribute to a better, more sustainable future.
F.A.Q.
A "third space" refers to a social environment separate from home (first place) and work (second place) where people can gather, connect, and engage with their community. At Origin, this concept is embodied in our commitment to creating a welcoming, inclusive space where everyone can come together to relax, share ideas, and participate in community-driven activities. Whether through gardening, enjoying ethically sourced coffee, or simply connecting with others, Origin provides a nurturing environment that fosters both personal well-being and collective growth.
Yes, we love having others come and use our venue. Please get in touch and we can chat about your needs and how we can work together.
Many people assume that joining Origin means you need to be actively involved in tasks like gardening, but that’s not how we see our space or community. While we’re not a drop-in coffee shop or garden centre—we require volunteers to sign up—being part of Origin could simply mean coming for the connection, or even just for the coffee! We value the importance of simply 'being.' Our goal isn't about completing tasks, but about creating and enjoying a space that nurtures well-being. We encourage our team to pause, rest, and simply relax in this beautiful environment.
