Lambertville comes to mind, but that’s more of an obvious choice – I’m all about discovering new things in New Jersey. You may be a bit surprised by my pick but, by the end of the article, you’ll see that it definitely gives off some serious hippie vibes.
It's also home to picturesque parks, lovely lakes, an island, and an abundance of shopping and dining opportunities. So, what makes it a hippie haven?
