Local History Talk - How Hippies Shaped the Way We Eat, 18+ YRS
The hippies defied conventions in politics, hairstyle, clothing, land ownership and material goods. They also defied conventional diets, choosing brown rice over white bread. Oregon’s hippies crafted foodways that reflected a new way of living that was sustainable, organic and healthy influencing America’s new cuisine and restaurants run by women like Alice Waters and Mollie Katzen. Diana’s funny and poignant remarks will have you laughing out loud and tasting your memories.
