Frequently Asked Questions


About Plain & Minimal

What is Plain & Minimal about?

Helping the world become curious and intentional about the way we live. We write about slowing down, mindfulness, food and local farming, nature, and wellness. We aren’t here to tell you how to live. We just want to spark a little curiosity.

Why doesn’t P&M have any social media?

We know word spreads easily on social media, but we also know how harmful endless scrolling can be. You can read more about this on our Manifesto page. We do encourage you to share posts or the website with anyone you think would enjoy them!

Newsletter and Posts

Do you do sponsored posts or paid partnerships?

No. Everything we share comes from genuine curiosity, not a paycheck.

When will I get the next newsletter or post?

We follow the moon! A new post goes out once a month, on either the full moon or the new moon. Why the moon? Because moons are cool!

What happens when I sign up? Will there be ads or extra emails?

No ads and no extras. Your inbox gets one post a month from us, and that’s it.

Is Plain & Minimal free?

Yes. All our posts are free, and some just need a free sign-up to read. Tips are always optional and always appreciated.

Do you sell or share my email address?

Never. Your email is only used to send you our posts. You can read more on our Privacy Policy page.

How do I unsubscribe or update my email?

Every email has an unsubscribe link at the bottom. You can also manage your account from the website at any time. No hard feelings!

Supporting P&M

What do you use the tips for?

Plain & Minimal was born out of a passion for living intentionally and staying curious about how our world keeps evolving, and not always for the better. A lot of work goes into putting ideas and posts together, all with the simple goal of creating change. Coffee, tea, and snacks make this possible, so that’s mostly where your tips go!

What’s the best way to share P&M with a friend?

Just forward any email or send them a link to a post. Word of mouth is how we grow, and we’re so grateful when you spread the word.

Can I suggest a topic or share my story?

Yes, please! Send your ideas to care@plainandminimal.com. Some of our favorite posts start with a reader’s question.
