Back before I had my baby, I never really imagined I would be part of a mothers group. Anyhow, now that I am finally a mum, chatting to other parents about what is taking place in my life has been a huge help. We chat about how we bring up our children, what to do and not to do, we share meal plans, and we like to discuss the newest baby outfits we have picked up.

I usually get together with 4 other mothers, once a fortnight, to hear about the latest new. We usually meet at Adirondack Smokehouse Barbecue CO (which is in INDIAN LAKE, NY) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last month was really exciting because we discussed baby clothes. I have been giving my baby organic meals from day one but I had not considered buying organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular products in America and one of the most harmful to the habitat and to farm employees. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has damaged habitats and in particular water ways. Organic products are made without the need for artificial fertilisers and insecticides. Instead, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, raising the quality of soils naturally, and using organic pest control practices.

You can purchase organic baby apparel online from a number of retailers. Sckoon has some beautiful organic baby apparel.

Benefits of Organic Clothing

Buying organic clothing means you are getting 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 less use of insecticides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our farms and lakes, fewer diseases for farm workers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by reducing their contact with dangerous chemicals.

Quite a few retailers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic clothes or you can find wholesalers completely committed to organic baby fashion. Thankfully, there are a lot of brands to choose from and all ages are provided for, from infants to older children. Obviously, organic fashion for men and women is also accessible and I am looking into that for myself and my man.

I do not think that I am only ever going to buy organic cotton or bamboo clothing (which is a great alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my children but I am most definitely going try to whenever I can.
