* On ''WesternAnimation/{{Birdz}}'', Eddie's big sister, Steffy, is a staunch environmentalist. The first episode has her throwing paint on models wearing fuzzy caterpillar coats, and another has her boycotting a singer because he uses a shampoo with the extract of an endangered plant (even though she had been begging to go to one of his concerts).*

%% * ''Series/BarRescue:'' Underground Wonder Bar owner Lonie took this one UpToEleven!

%%* This is Wrestling/DaizeeHaze's gimmick in Wrestling/{{SHIMMER}}, describing her time in the promotion as a mission from Mother Earth. It's cranked UpToEleven as Marley in ''{{Wrestling/Wrestlicious}}''.

* Mimi's mom from ''WesternAnimation/WhatAboutMimi?'', to the point where she forbids her husband and kids from eating meat and they have to resort to eating it behind her back.

and is immmediately filled with pigeon, when she says her name is Storm.

* ''WebOriginal/BrandonRogers'' has the Astrological Lesbians Darlene and her celestial star partner Cathlen as parodies of this. They only eat mud to not threaten the lives of plants, hate dicks, and are angered by their son drawing them, Cathlen is a musician whose songs are a single note held for three minutes and Darlene teaches a spiritual healing class. In "A Day At the Beach", they even try to perform a ceremony to regulate their menstrual cycles with the ocean.

* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'': Marzipan whose "dirty hippie" quotient varies -- although the Strong Bad Email [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail160.html coloring]] painted her as a frightening [[PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad political-correctness freak]]. The Christmas 2010 'toon "A Decemberween Mackerel" suggests she may be farther on the self-righteous dark side of the trope than we realize:

* ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'': Sheena, who is a health-nut and hates violence of any kind. Helga even lampshades it at one point: "That's it, granola girl, you're dismissed!"

You can expect either gender to play the guitar, [[DreadfulMusician badly]] (or actually be pretty good at it), or the [[QuirkyUkelele ukelele]]. Regardless of gender, they are portrayed as sincere and well-meaning. Bonus points for having an out-of-the-box HippieName (think Music/FrankZappa's offspring).

* Starfire from ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' shows signs of this, though she's still getting used to our planet and doesn't really have the finer points down. She doesn't quite have the diet part down though; known for eating many a bizarre food, when they actually go to Tamaran she's shown to have the same level of table manners as the rest of her people (none) and much of their food appears to ''still be alive''.

* ''Series/TheThickOfIt'': Stewart Pearson from is an example and an unusual one in that he is neither an aging hippy nor a sympathetic character. He drinks herbal tea, cycles everywhere, and is possibly far too PC for the centre-Right political party which employs him as a spin doctor. His colleagues generally find him irrational and irritating: MP Peter Mannion was less than impressed when Stewart made him install a wind turbine on the roof of his home. For PR purposes, naturally: underneath it all, he's as ruthless as a spin doctor needs to be.

Granola ''Guys'' are less common, and are often depicted as some flavor of NewAgeRetroHippie: either a [[Creator/CheechAndChong Tommy Chong-ish]] {{Erudite Stoner}}, a balding old guy with a ponytail who [[DiscoDan only grudgingly accepts that the 1960s are over]], or (in more recent works) a pretentious millennial {{hipster}}. Either way, expect a big beard.

* ''Fanfic/TotalDramaWhatIfSeries'' Dawn was unimpressed by the food that Chef made in the first episode, as when Chef gave her a clump of dirt after suggesting something vegan, she wished that they could've at least given her a salad. That and the fact that her personality is part of this trope.

* One episode of ''Series/{{Mom}}'' has Christy date a male one. He's vegan, very much of environmentalist, into New Age stuff such as Tantra and condemns Adam and Bonnie for eating meat. Christy tries to live his lifestyle, but ultimately breaks down, ending their relationship after he catches her eating ribs.

* Holly in ''Film/{{Shrooms}}'' gives off this vibe but isn't generally too obnoxious about it (unless she is having an argument with Lisa). Like her boyfriend Troy (who is more TheStoner), she thinks thank taking magic mushrooms can't hurt you because they are 'natural'.

* Starr from ''WesternAnimation/{{Sixteen}}'' is a vegan and a New Age enthusiast. She is Jude's first girlfriend, and the first girl he ever kisses. Like him, she is somewhat of an oddball with a strange outlook on life. She often wears rollerblades, and works at Vegan Island.

** This eventually gets him fired, as his proposal to take the students to the infamous Mapplethorpe exhibit is met with outrage by the parents.
