    Well lets see, I try to eat mostly organic food (when the finances are good), my garden is totally organic, I purchase organic wheat (that I grind myself).

    We recycle, we re-use (you can read about that in Blog Diva's forum in regards to recycling workshop). I don't watch any tv, but my dks watch a couple of programs.

    I don't hug trees (I hug humans ), but I do believe in protecting the environment in any way I can and in particular protrecting the rain forests. I also believe in protecting the endangered species in the animal world.

    We eat very little processed foods and are getting closer to eating non at all. We eat little meat and now have more vegetairian meals than non-meals.

    Dh did not take a job at a horse ranch because they were a pmq horse ranch and we don't believe in that.

    Does this qualify?

    hmmm, well I am sure not super crunchy. I do try to do my part though.
    I do recycle and reuse quite a bit. I tend to buy a lot of used items vs. new.
    I would love to go vegetarian, but vegan is a bit too much for me.
    I'd prefer to be more natural/organic with foods, but it gets costly and I sometimes have to make a decision between my frugality and simplicity ways and my healthy and greener living ways. I do my best to not purchase many processed foods packed with preservatives though.
    I do often buy via local vendors vs. larger corporations though. Again, not always though.

    I'm sure there are other ways I am crunchy. (like in my parenting styles)
