Veneta, Oregon, was plenty granola back in the day (wonder what it is like now). It is where they have the Country Fair, and like any number of "Renaissance" hippy fairs, can be great or not so great...lots depends on the individual. Back in the late 80s, there was a pretty big magic mushroom bust in a commercially operated mushroom farm in Veneta.My all-time favorite Dead related media is the Veneta film. When Jerry sings BIrd Song it's just the peak of the whole Dead trip. Especially with the naked hippie perched on the pole in the background.
