In 2003 Dragonfly Media purchased The New Times and it became part of a family of publications comprised of Shared Vision in Vancouver, BC; Whole Life Times in Los Angeles, CA; Common Ground in San Francisco, CA; and Conscious Choice in Chicago, IL. Relaunching with the January 2004 issue Dragonfly Media renamed The New Times to Evergreen Monthly. The U.S. publications were later sold to Conscious Enlightenment. Subsequently Evergreen Monthly was renamed Conscious Choice Seattle. GAIAM later purchased the publications and with the April 2009 issue ceased publishing these magazines.
