Long before I had my children, I never really thought I would be part of a mothers group. Anyhow, now that I am finally a new mother, being able to talk to other mothers about what is taking place in my life has really helped me. We discuss how we bring up our children, what to do and not to do, we share baby food recipes, and we enjoy being able to chat about the most recent baby fashions we have picked up.

I usually meet with 2 other parents, once a week, to hear about the latest gossip. We generally meet at Hooters Restaurant (which is in OMAHA, NE) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last time was particularly eye opening as we chatted about baby clothes. I have been feeding my baby girl organic meals from the start but I had not considered getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular plants in the world and one of the most harmful to the habitat and to farm workers. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has destroyed ecosystems and in particular water supplies. Organic cotton is grown without using artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Rather, organic farming depends upon things like crop rotation, enhancing soils naturally, and using eco friendly pest control practices.

You can purchase soft organic cotton baby clothing online from a number of stores. Sckoon is my favourite for organic baby clothes.

Benefits of Organic Clothing

Buying organic clothes means you are getting clothes 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 less use of herbicides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our farms and waterways, fewer health problems for farmers, and fewer health risks for our children by lessening their contact with toxic chemicals.

Many wholesalers of baby clothes also make a range of organic items or you can find companies completely committed to organic baby clothes. Anyway, there are a lot of designs to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from toddlers to teenagers. Naturally, organic fashion for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

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