What does it mean to be a “hippie” anyway?

This is a question I aim to answer through this blog. Has the idea of the hippie changed over the years? Is the hippie still a granola-eating, earth loving being who dresses in reclaimed clothing and Birkenstocks?

Or has the hippie evolved? Has it taken to the mainstream? Does it exist within everyone’s paradigm? Or is it just a marketing scheme to sell more dolphin-friendly laundry detergent?

My goal for Not Quite Hippie is to present living sustainably as something everyone can accomplish without having to drastically change their lifestyle. To show that one can work towards creating a better earth without having to wear tie-dye.

Not Quite Hippie is updated at least twice a week. Want more? I update the Tumblr almost daily, send out cool stuff via Twitter and Facebook, and write for the masses at Examiner.com.
