Lawrence, Kansas

The place is very chill and down to earth. As much as marijuana seems to be a symbol of hippydom, i would have to say that Lawrence grows some of the finer buds in the states, of course next to Oregon and Boulder. Views: 17441 Continue reading

New Harmony, Indiana

TOTALLY peaceful and a prefectly friendly and historic enviroment. In the middle of town there is a beautiful garden with benches,completely fenced in like an oasis. I always walk bare foot in that town,in new harmony there is no other way to do it that gives you the full force of the peace there. Views: […] Continue reading

Needmore, Indiana

“This is a tiny, tiny place way, way out in the boonies, but an ideal location for a commune, wouldn’t you say? Yes, Lothlorien is the name of the place and is just south of Bloomington a ways. Lothlorien is the beautiful location of many festivals throughout the year, and they have an open season […] Continue reading

Broad Ripple, Indiana

A suburb of Indianapolis. I almost didn’t mention this one, except you’ve listed Bloomington and that is a MAJOR college-party city, and Broad Ripple is the same way with all of the bars. I can tell you, though, that there are a plethora of vintage stores all in a row and there is also a […] Continue reading

Bloomington, Indiana

“This town has a modest, but decent, hippie community. At 4:20 (p.m.) at a park on 9th Street, there is a drum circle. Also a cafe/restaurant called the Runcible Spoon is visited by many hippies and other interesting people. A few hippies (roughly 6) work there as well. The restaurant is located on 6th Street […] Continue reading

Waukegan, Illinois

Has a “hippie college” in the least likely of places – Shimer College is one of THE most liberal of colleges and no one in the world seems to know about it. There are no lecture classes, we discuss books (actual sorces, no textbooks that have been biased by someone elses’ ideas) in groups of […] Continue reading

Makanda, Illinois

It’s way out there among hills in a forrest, but once you set foot on the “sidewalk” of the town square (which is barely anything) you notice the overall atmosphere of art. The place SCREAMS hippie haven!! It’s a calm, peaceful town, it’s creative and close to nature,a favorite for me!! And nearby is a […] Continue reading

Chicago, Illinois

The ground is so fertile here in Illinois that when you drop a nickel it turns into a quarter before you pick it up. You’d imagine there’d be plenty of hippys and longhairs crawling all over Illinois, right? Nope, not really. You’ll find some transplants downstate at the universities but mostly you’ll find ’em up […] Continue reading

Stanley, Idaho

The towns population is 69 doesn’t that say it all. Located 110 miles north of Boise. Beautiful lakes, hiking trails, sawtooth mountains, laid back people, hot springs, lots of drumming and lots of love. Unbelievable town to go check out! Views: 4047 Continue reading
