Long before I had my first child, I had not thought I would be part of a mothers group. However, now that I have become a mother, chatting to other parents about what is happening in my life has really helped me. We talk about how we bring up our children, what to do and not to do, we share meal plans, and we enjoy being able to discuss the most recent baby fashions we have bought.

I usually get together with 3 other parents, once a week, to catch up on the latest gossip. We generally meet at North Sea Chinese Restaurant (which is in BURTON, MI) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last time was really eye opening seeing we chatted about baby clothes. I have been feeding my baby girl organic food from the start but I had not considered buying organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular products in the world and one of the most harmful to the ecosystem and to farmers. The run off from these farms has damaged habitats and particularly water bodies. Organic products are produced without the need for artificial fertilisers and insecticides. Instead, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, raising the quality of soils naturally, and using organic insect control practices.

You can get beautiful organic baby clothes online from a number of retailers. Sckoon has some of the cutest organic baby clothes.

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Purchasing organic clothes means you are getting clothes which have been produced in an eco-friendly manner, or at a minimum in a way which causes less damage to soils and waterways. No or less use of herbicides and fertilisers means less pollution of our land and lakes, reduced cancers for farmers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by moderating their contact with dangerous chemicals.

Several makers of baby clothes also make a range of organic clothes or you can find retailers solely committed to organic baby fashion. Thankfully, there are a lot of designs to choose from and all ages are provided for, from toddlers to teenagers. Obviously, organic clothes for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

I am not saying that I am just going to purchase organic cotton or bamboo clothing (which is a fantastic alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my children but I am definitely going try to whenever it is available.
