Plot Squatters EcoWash Dad Hat

The hat that was inspired by a little community-garden drama and ended up on Serra Naiman's head. 🌱

For gardeners, garden gossipers, and anyone who has ever become way too invested in who gets which plot.

The Plot Squatter EcoWash™ Dad Hat features bold cream embroidery reading PLOT SQUATTER, complete with crossed garden tools. Originally made for Serra Naiman after she coined the phrase during her community-garden saga, the hat became such a hit that she asked us to make it available to everyone.

Built on an EcoWash™ dad hat, this relaxed, broken-in style has the comfortable, lived-in look of a favorite hat from day one. It's perfect for gardening, farmers markets, outdoor projects, or simply wearing while you keep up with the latest garden drama.

Inspired by Serra's Community Garden Saga

Some hats are designed around a trend. This one came from a very specific piece of internet lore.

After seeing Serra's community-garden videos, we offered to make her a custom Plot Squatter hat. She loved it, wore it in her videos, and then asked us to make the design available to her audience.

So if you've ever watched the garden saga and thought, “I need a hat for this,” — this is that hat. 😂

EcoWash™ Comfort

The EcoWash™ dad hat has that soft, relaxed feel that makes a hat look like you've owned it forever — without actually having to wait years for it to get there.

Its casual, lived-in appearance makes it especially well suited to a gardening hat, whether you're actually digging in the dirt or just supervising from the sidelines.

Heartland Stitch Tip 🌻

A relaxed dad hat is one of our favorite styles for everyday wear because it doesn't feel overly structured or formal. The EcoWash finish gives this one an especially easygoing, broken-in character.
