In the Beginning… There Was a Leaf 🌿

⚠️ Warning: Do not read while drinking. people have nearly lost coffee.

A true-ish story Jess swears could actually happen because , unlike the bible, this one makes logical fkn sense.

Alright gather round - this is the story of Leaf, the worlds first cartoon tradie who became a business owner purely by accident.

(Relatable.)

Leaf wasn't always the rainbow-glowing icon you see today. Nah.

He started off as just your average bush bloke - chill, green and minding his own photosynthesis.

One day, Leaf was at work.

On smoko.

A normal smoko.

A quiet smoko.

A "please dont talk to me until ive had my cone and caffinated beverage" smoko.

Jess - (Thats me - hi) was also on smoko.

Not smoking.....

Just being the boss and hiding from responsibilities while pretending everything was under control.

Anyway, Leaf cops a gust of wind, flies off the plant he was peacefully attached to, and lands face-first into a rainbow oil spill from some dodgy lawnmower that absolutely failed a safety check.

Next thing you know. - BOOM 💥

He's glowing like a pride parade, talking like he's been awake for 48 hours straight, and suddenly developing....

Ideas.

Which is terrifying, because cartoons should not have ideas.

Leaf looks at jess and goes:

"Oi, you ever thought about turning our work and lifestyle choice into a brand?"

Jess:

"Bro, im just trying to survive the day."

Leaf:

"nah nah nah, listen......tradies...but there STONED. And funny. And cute. AND we’ll sell merch so we can make some extra cash on the side."

Jess just stares at him like:

is this happening or am i overtired?

But the idea..... actually made sense. Like real-world sense.

Not Adam-and-Eve-mysterious-extra-children sense.

Next thing, Leaf grabs some bricks.

Starts stacking them.

But he's high as sh☆t, so instead of building a wall, he builds....

A logo

NEEDWEEDWEEDNEED

A whole arse brick logo.

No one has ever built a logo physically before - but Leaf did.

Because apparently when you’re baked, he turns into bob the builder with ADHD.

"Jess. Babe. We just built a brand.and a logo."

Jess:

"We?"

Leaf:

"Yeah you watched and emotionally supported me."

And that was it.

GreenandSEEN was born.

Not from a buisness plan.

Not from a university degree.

Not from divine intervention.

Nope.

It was born because Leaf got high, fell face-first into a rainbow petrol, hallucinated confidence, and gaslit his boss into becoming a business owner with merch.

Now Leaf spends his his days strutting around like he's the CEO, telling everyone what to do - even though he's literally made of plant matter.

And Jess?

She's out here building an empire with a stoner cartoon that talks more then her anxiety.

And somehow.....

someway...

it all makes sense

because unlike some stories out there -

This one could actually fkn happen.

And thats how the the chaos began...

Leaf has never recovered from that level of confidence - and honestly, neither has Jess.

from that one chaotic smoko, the GreenandSEEN universe grew:

Stoner tradies, rainbow leaves, merch, and a brand built on accidents, caffeine, and questionable ideas that somehow work.

If you've read this far, congratulations - you officially know more about Leaf's origin story then Leaf remembers.

Now go meet the rest of the crew, shop the chaos, or just keep scrolling and laughing.

either way...
