Before I had my first child, I never really believed I would belong to a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I am a new mother, being able to talk to other women about what is taking place in my life has been a huge help. We chat about how we deal with our children, what to do and not to do, we share recipes, and we enjoy being able to discuss the most recent baby clothes we have picked up.

I generally go out with 3 other mothers, once a week, to catch up on the latest happenings. We often meet at Rich Plan Home Food Service (which is in CALEDONIA, MI) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last time was more exciting because we talked about baby clothes. I have been feeding my baby girl organic meals from the start but I had never thought about purchasing organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most broadly grown products in the world and one of the most harmful to the environment and to farmers. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has damaged ecosystems and particularly water bodies. Organic products are grown without using artificial fertilisers and pesticides. Alternatively, organic farming depends upon things like crop rotation, enhancing soils naturally, and using eco friendly pest control methods.

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

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Getting organic products means you are getting products which have been produced in an eco-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 cancers for farm employees, and fewer health risks for our children by lessening their contact with dangerous chemicals.

Several producers of baby clothes also make a range of organic items or you can find companies completely committed to organic baby fashion. Either way, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are provided for, from babies to teenagers. Obviously, organic clothes for men and women is also accessible and I am looking into that for myself and my man.

I am not saying 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 most definitely going try to whenever it is available.
