Alabama

We’ve got lots of forests in North Alabama and sometimes a group called the Rainbow People come to Mount Cheaha and harmonize with nature. There are a great number of hippies living in the Calhoun County area; mainly in Anniston, Oxford and Jacksonville, Alabama. If any hippies need somewhere to move to, come on to Alabama. We have plenty of room and the people of our land don’t care what you look like.

  1. hey everybody. i just moved back here to montgomery after leaving the military because i couldnt live peacefully with the idea that the people i worked for and with were directly responsible for the impending doom of humanity.(if you want to talk about the issues, feel free to IM me at chronos913 on yahoo or write and email to the same address.) anyway, i couldnt smoke for the two years i was in the air force, and now i’m looking to break the celibacy with some kind bud–glistening THC crystals irradiating my eyes with their glory, that wonderful pungent aroma filling my nostrils, that heavenly, awe inspiring anesthetic filling my lungs taking me on a voyage through space and time–i miss it. if anyone can get me in touch with some quality bud, i’d be really appreciative. the stuff i’m looking for is usually priced in the range of 50-65 bucks an 1/8th. i’m headed to pensacola this weekend to grab a bong and or spoon, so if you’re on the way and can help me…write me.
    FREE THE MIND! UNITE THE PEOPLE! LOVE THIS PLACE FOR ALL IT’S WORTH AND MORE!

  2. Hello everyone just dropping my first line on these threads. I am wondering if there are any festivales coming up in this year. Me and some of my friends out of Moody Al, would like to come to one of these to maybe play some drums and guitar with everyone and have a good time.

    Send me an email at Pgramer3@aol.com if anyone knows of any

    Thanks

  3. I can’t vouch for other parts of Alabama, but Gadsden is alright. We have a cool scene here, once you’re in. We have some people who’s work is making patchwork clothes and stuff. My wife and I just bought a house a few months ago and I had to clear the land around the house a bit and now I have a huge pile of wood that I’m now glad I didn’t burn. We are now recycling this wood into nice stuff, coasters, walking sticks, clocks, chairs, lamps, etc. The spirit is alive here, you just have to look. Of course you do have the redneck type folks, bible thumpers, and so on, but I haven’t been anywhere where everyone love you (:except maybe in a lot at a show 🙂 You just learn to accept them and see what they can teach you. Sometimes nothing it seems, but that’s okay too. My wife went from a barefoot, sundress wearing, flowers in your hair, love people and nature type to a HARDCORE bible type person. Dyed hair, office job, the whole nine. If your’e not careful the opposites will attract down here. I was into it too for awhile, but talk about feeling lost and hypocritical! Now I’m back, but she’s not. If you fall off the wagon down here, they’ll always help you back on. One of our friends that make the patchwork clothes just got busted the other day and needs money to get their car back, if anyone has any old clothes or fabric to use or just want to check out their work drop me a line! They could use the help right now. alabamagetaway26@yahoo.com

    PS: If anyone likes to jam around Gadsden give me a shout. We get some grooves going from time to time. You can bring a drum, guitar, bass, flute, whatever, it’s all good!

  4. Clayton, GA on the Alabama state line. I am very interested in coming. I heard about the gathering in Clayton last year and I was going but my truck overheated on the way. I was on I-85 out of Montgomery and got stuck. Please post details!

  5. to all you people who say you left alabama or advised people to leave or are planning to leave because it is so awful….i live inthat same kind of place, a town of 400 in south mississippi, but you know what, if all the hippies in middle america in the 60’s had left for a “better” place, where would women, minorities, gays and the environment be today? a true hippie sticks their neck out for what they believe in, no matter what the people around them say, think , or do. so stay where you are, love everyone, and teach through example, you know, pick up trash on the side of the road, smile at everyone, help out any way you can, and never judge. just ride it out doing what you believe in, and eventually, maybe in your children’s or grandchildren’s time, conditions and attitudes will be better.
    love eternal,

  6. Hey I’m from Weaver, AL(close to Anniston) and I would like to know when the Rainbow People come to Cheaha. I’m a devoted Deadhead and hippy, I feel like the only one around but I know it can’t be true. My e-mail is pallmallking@yahoo.com

  7. hey yall i was born and raised an alabama im looking for a place for my poppa and i to live and work any assistence will do please were so ver despereate thanks yall

  8. Well, Alabama really is a beautiful state, esp. the north. The Tennessee River is what keeps me here. Have been here all my life (dying to try somewhere else for awhile) but I know I will end up back here! I am a Girl Scout leader and mentor trying to open up a whole world of ideas, nature, and fun to our next generation! Whatever your ideals; PASS IT ON!

    We live near Florence, anyone around give us a buzz. Regarding the FLorence area, due to the university there are lots of 20-somethings and quite a few good folks and decent bars with music most weekends. Cops are NOT COOL WHATSOEVER. Guard your shit with your life.

  11. Hello.

    I live in Fort Payne Alabama, with my husband and daughter. He is a drummer, I am a housewife. It is hard to find open minded people in this state, see..I am almost 14 years older than my husband, so we get alot of looks and people whisper behind our backs. I have black hair, he has long hair, and facial piercings, people do not seem to understand us at all. Just looking for someone to talk to, that does not judge.

    Peace and Love to all
    Laura
