Before I had my baby, I never really thought I would belong to a mothers group. Anyhow, now that I am a mum, chatting to other parents about what is going on in my life has benefited me immensely. 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 discuss the newest baby outfits we have picked up.

I usually go out with 4 other mothers, once a week, to catch up on the latest gossip. We often meet at Sun KOON Restaurant (which is in JACKSON, MS) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last week was really interesting seeing we chatted about baby clothes. I have been feeding my baby boy organic food from day one but I had not considered getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most broadly grown products in the US and one of the most ruinous to the environment and to farm employees. The run off from these farms has destroyed ecosystems and especially water supplies. Organic produce is made without the use of artificial fertilisers and pesticides. Rather, organic farming depends upon things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic insect control practices.

You can purchase organic cotton baby clothing online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some beautiful organic baby clothing.

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Getting organic clothing means you are getting products which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at a minimum in a way which causes less damage to soils and waterways. No or a reduction in the use of pesticides and fertilisers means less pollution of our soils and waterways, fewer health problems for farm employees, and fewer health risks for our children by moderating their contact with dangerous chemicals.

A number of makers of baby clothes also produce a range of organic clothing or you can find companies entirely devoted to organic baby clothing. Thankfully, there are a lot of designs to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from babies to older children. Of course, organic fashion for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

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