Welcome to The Dirt & The Groove

A Planty, Funky, Feel-Good Corner of the Internet 🌿💿✨

Hey you. Yes, you with the Monstera and the Fleetwood Mac record on repeat. Welcome to The Dirt & The Groove — the official blog of Flora & Fauna, your new favorite Seattle-based shop for indoor plants, vinyl records, and eco-friendly living that doesn’t look like a compost bin.

We’re here for the plant parents, record collectors, design snobs, maximalists, minimalists, and every beautifully chaotic soul in between.

So… What is The Dirt & The Groove, Exactly?

Think of it as your go-to source for:

• 🪴 Plant care tips (without the guilt or jargon)

• 💿 Vinyl guides (because you deserve more than warped thrift-store singles)

• 🛋️ Sustainable lifestyle inspo (that doesn’t scream “I live in a yurt”)

• 🎧 Playlists, home styling ideas, & interviews with rad creatives

• 🌱 Behind-the-scenes from our shop and slow-living, vibe-maximizing rants

Basically, if it lives, spins, grows, or sets a mood — we’re talking about it.

Why Start a Blog Now?

Because the internet needs one more hot take on:

• Why your snake plant is dying (spoiler: probably overwatering)

• How to clean your records without ruining them

• Why your living room isn’t giving until it has both a fern and Fleetwood

• How to romanticize your life with plants + playlists — and yes, ethically sourced incense

And because algorithms are cool and all, but we wanted a space to go deeper than just pretty pictures and cute captions. (Though trust us, there will still be plenty of both.)

What’s Next?

Coming up soon:

• “Top 5 Plants That Thrive in Moody Seattle Apartments”

• “How to Build a Vinyl Collection You’ll Actually Listen To”

• “Eco Chic: 7 Swaps That Don’t Suck”

And yes, we’ll be asking you to spill your tea, too.

Let’s Grow, Spin, & Vibe Together

Whether you're a green-thumbed goddess, a record-hoarding maximalist, or someone who just wants their apartment to stop looking like a beige box, you're in the right place.

Welcome to Flora & Fauna’s world — a little wild, a little weird, and wildly well-styled.

Stay rooted. Stay groovy. Stay weird.
💚 F&F
