Description
Every Wednesday on the Hippie Haven podcast, learn how to live harmoniously with yourself, others & the planet. We talk about all things hippie, including eating vegan, reducing your trash, starting an ethical business, eco-activism, gardening, beekeeping, tiny house living, and so much more.
Today's guest is Dr. Jessica Shade, the Director of science programs at the organic center, a non profit research and education organization based in Washington DC. Their mission is to conduct and convene credible evidence based science on the environmental and health effects of organic food and farming and communicate the findings to the public with a vision of a sustainable and secure food system that promotes the health of humans and the environment. Some of Dr. Jessica Shade's most recent collaborations include projects aimed at decreasing nitrogen pollution from agricultural sources, increasing on farm biodiversity and developing integrated pest management solutions for organic growers. Dr Shade develops and leads the center's signature conference event, which brings together policy makers or researchers, farmers, industry members, and other nonprofits to address and overcome challenges faced by the organic sector. She has a Switzer environmental fellow and has been honored for her environmental accomplishments by the Ecological Society of America Student Section and Union for concerned scientists through their ecoservice award. She received her phd from the University of California Berkeley, and today she'll be clearing up all the common myths on organic food.
The Hippie Haven Podcast is hosted by Callee - a zero waste activist & business owner. Formerly a translator for the US Navy, Callee was honorably discharged as a conscientious objector in 2017 following an episode of severe depression & alcoholism fueled by not living in alignment with her core values. That same year, at age 23, she started Bestowed Essentials, a handmade line of eco-friendly beauty & home products that are now stocked in over 100 stores around the US & Canada. Callee began hosting this free podcast in August 2018, as well as speaking at events and teaching educational workshops across the country, as part of her life mission to arm you with the knowledge & tools you need to spark positive change in your community. In December 2019, she opened The Hippie Haven in Rapid City, South Dakota - a zero waste retail store & community space with a little free library - the first of its kind in the state. She’ll be opening a second Hippie Haven in Salem, Oregon in Feb 2021.

Animal Rights Activism with Ezra Frazier of All Around Vegan Box: Welcome to The Hippie Haven Podcast! In this episode, Callee chats with Ezra Frazier of All Around Vegan Box. Ezra is a 19 year old in North Carolina who started his own vegan business, the All Around Vegan Box. We chat about why Ezra became vegan even though he didn't care about animal rights at first, how his mindset shifted, how he encourages passive animal rights activism through his monthly subscription boxes, why he thinks there's so few male vegans, and how to change that.
