Long before I had my baby, I never imagined I would belong to a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I have become a mother, talking to other women about what is going on in my life has benefited me immensely. We talk about how we deal with our children, what to do and not to do, we share baby food recipes, and we love to discuss the newest baby outfits we have picked up.

I usually go out with 3 other women, once a week, to hear about the latest new. We usually meet at Second Avenue Deli & Market (which is in DEERFIELD BEACH, FL) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last month was more eye opening because we chatted about organic baby clothes. I have been giving my baby boy organic food from the start but I had never thought about buying organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular crops in the US and one of the most devastating to the habitat and to farm workers. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has destroyed habitats and especially water supplies. Organic produce is produced without using artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Instead, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic pest control methods.

You can buy organic cotton baby outfits online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some gorgeous organic baby clothing.

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Purchasing organic clothes means you are getting products which have been produced in an eco-friendly manner, or at least in a way which causes less contamination of our habitat. No or reduced use of insecticides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our farms and waterways, reduced cancers for farmers, and fewer health risks for our children by lessening their contact with potentially dangerous chemicals.

Many wholesalers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic items or you can find retailers entirely committed to organic baby clothes. Thankfully, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from babies to older children. Naturally, organic fashion for men and women is also accessible and I am looking into that for myself and my husband.

I would not go as far to say that I am only going to purchase organic cotton or bamboo clothing (which is a fantastic alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my baby but I am most definitely going try to whenever I can.
