Before I had my children, I had not thought I would be part of a mothers group. However, now that I am finally a mother, chatting to other women about what is taking place in my life has really helped me. We discuss how we raise our children, what to do and not to do, we share meal plans, and we enjoy being able to discuss the most recent baby outfits we have purchased.

I generally get together with 4 other parents, once a month, to hear about the latest gossip. We generally meet at Belforte Bistro (which is in CLEVELAND, OH) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last week was really eye opening seeing we chatted about organic baby clothing. I have been giving my baby organic meals from day one but I had never thought about getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular plants in the world and one of the most harmful to the environment and to farm employees. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has ruined the environment and particularly water ways. Organic products are produced without the use of artificial fertilisers and insecticides. Rather, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, raising the quality of soils naturally, and using eco friendly pest control practices.

You can get beautiful organic baby apparel online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some gorgeous organic baby apparel.

Benefits of Organic Baby Clothing

Buying organic products means you are purchasing produce which have been produced in an eco friendly manner, or at the very least in a way which causes less pollution of our habitat. No or less use of insecticides and fertilizers means less pollution of our farms and waterways, less health problems for farm workers, and fewer health risks for our children by lessening their contact with potentially dangerous chemicals.

A number of producers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic items or you can find designers completely committed to organic baby clothing. Anyway, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are provided for, from infants to older children. Obviously, organic fashion for men and women is also accessible and I am looking into that for myself and my husband.

I do not think that I am only ever going to purchase organic cotton or bamboo clothing (which is an amazing alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my baby but I am absolutely going try to whenever I can.
