Back before I had my first child, I never really imagined I would be part of a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I am a mum, chatting to other mothers about what is taking place in my life has been a huge help. We talk about how we bring up our children, what to do and not to do, we share meal plans, and we like to talk about the most recent baby outfits we have purchased.

I generally go out with 3 other mothers, once a month, to catch up on the latest happenings. We often meet at Greenhouse Cafe (which is in BROOKLYN, NY) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last time was particularly interesting seeing we talked about baby clothes. I have been giving my baby boy organic produce from the start but I had not considered buying organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most broadly grown products in the world and one of the most harmful to the habitat and to farmers. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has ruined habitats and especially water supplies. Organic produce is made without the need for artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Instead, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, enhancing soils naturally, and using eco friendly pest control methods.

You can buy beautiful organic baby clothing online from a number of shops. Sckoon has some gorgeous organic baby clothing.

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Getting organic clothing means you are purchasing produce which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at least in a way which causes less contamination of the environment. No or less use of herbicides and fertilizers means less pollution of our farms and waterways, less health problems for farmers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by reducing their contact with dangerous chemicals.

Many retailers of baby clothes also make a range of organic clothing or you can find retailers completely dedicated to organic baby clothes. Anyway, there are a lot of brands to choose from and all ages are catered for, from infants to older children. Of course, organic fashion for men and women is also accessible and I am looking into that for myself and my husband.

I am not saying that I am only going to get organic cotton or bamboo cotton clothing (which is a fantastic alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my baby but I am without a doubt going try to whenever possible.
