Long before I had my children, I never believed I would join a mothers group. Anyhow, now that I am a new mother, talking to other mothers about what is taking place 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 talk about the latest baby outfits we have bought.

I usually go out with 2 other women, once a fortnight, to catch up on the latest gossip. We usually meet at Mr Hero (which is in NORTHFIELD, OH) as that is quite central for all of us. Last time was really exciting because we talked about organic baby clothing. I have been giving my baby boy organic meals from the start but it had never crossed my mind to purchasing organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most widely grown plants in America and one of the most devastating to the habitat and to farmers. The run off from cotton farms has damaged habitats and particularly water bodies. Organic produce is grown without the need for artificial fertilisers and insecticides. Rather, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, enhancing soils naturally, and using organic pest control techniques.

You can get organic cotton baby clothes online from a number of shops. Sckoon has some beautiful organic baby clothing.

Benefits of Organic Baby Clothing

Buying organic clothes means you are buying products which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at a minimum in a way which causes less pollution of the environment. No or reduced use of herbicides and fertilizers means less pollution of our land and lakes, fewer health problems for farmers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by moderating their contact with toxic chemicals.

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

I would not go as far to say that I am just going to buy organic cotton or bamboo clothes (which is an amazing alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my child but I am most definitely going try to whenever it is available.
