Before I had my children, I never really imagined I would be part of a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I am finally a new mother, chatting to other women about what is taking place in my life has really helped me. We chat about how we raise our children, what to do and not to do, we share meal plans, and we enjoy being able to talk about the latest baby outfits we have picked up.

I usually meet with 2 other parents, once a month, to find out the latest new. We often meet at IL Fornaio - Restaurant Reservations, Pine Inn (which is in CARMEL, CA) as that is quite central for all of us. Last time was more eye opening seeing we chatted about organic baby clothing. I have been feeding my baby organic food from day one but it had never crossed my mind to getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most widely grown products in America and one of the most ruinous to the habitat and to farm employees. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has destroyed the environment and particularly water supplies. Organic cotton is grown without using artificial fertilisers and insecticides. Rather, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic pest control methods.

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

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Getting organic products means you are purchasing produce which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at least in a way which causes less contamination of our habitat. No or a reduction in the use of herbicides and fertilizers means less pollution of our soils and rivers, fewer cancers for farmers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by reducing their contact with toxic chemicals.

Many wholesalers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic items or you can find stores completely committed to organic baby clothing. Anyway, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are provided for, from infants to older children. Naturally, organic fashion for men and women is also available and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

I do not think that I am only going to purchase organic cotton or bamboo clothes (which is a good alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my child but I am absolutely going try to whenever I can.
