Back before I had my children, I never believed I would be part of a mothers group. However, now that I am a mum, talking to other parents about what is taking place in my life has really helped me. We chat about how we deal with our children, what to do and not to do, we share meal plans, and we love to chat about the newest baby fashions we have picked up.

I more often than not get together with 2 other women, once a month, to catch up on the latest gossip. We generally meet at China Lane Express (which is in TAVARES, FL) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last month was really exciting seeing we talked about baby clothes. I have been providing my baby organic meals from day one but I had not considered purchasing organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular crops in the US and one of the most devastating to the ecosystem and to farmers. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has damaged ecosystems and in particular water ways. Organic produce is made without the need for artificial fertilisers and insecticides. Alternatively, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic insect control practices.

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

Benefits of Organic Baby Clothing

Getting organic products means you are purchasing produce which have been produced in an eco friendly manner, or at least in a way which causes less damage to soils and waterways. No or reduced use of pesticides and fertilisers means less pollution of our soils and rivers, reduced cancers for farm employees, and fewer health risks for our children by moderating their contact with potentially dangerous chemicals.

A number of producers of baby clothes also make a range of organic items or you can find wholesalers completely devoted to organic baby fashion. Thankfully, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are provided for, from babies to adolescents. Obviously, organic clothing 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 going to get organic cotton or bamboo cotton clothing (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.
