Long before I had my children, I never really thought I would belong to a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I am finally a new mother, chatting to other parents about what is going on in my life has been a huge help. We discuss how we deal with our children, what to do and not to do, we share recipes, and we love to talk about the newest baby fashions we have picked up.

I generally get together with 2 other parents, once a week, to catch up on the latest happenings. We generally meet at Plazas Pizza & Pasta (which is in GLOVERSVILLE, NY) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last time was more interesting because we chatted about organic baby clothing. I have been feeding my baby boy organic produce from the beginning 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 habitat and to farm employees. The run off from these farms has destroyed the environment and especially water ways. Organic produce is made without the need for artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Alternatively, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, enhancing soils naturally, and using organic pest control methods.

You can get beautiful organic baby clothes online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some of the cutest organic baby clothing.

Benefits of Organic Clothing

Purchasing organic clothes means you are buying produce which have been produced in an eco-friendly manner, or at a minimum in a way which causes less damage to the environment. No or reduced use of insecticides and fertilizers means less pollution of our farms and lakes, fewer cancers for farmers, and fewer health risks for children by moderating their contact with dangerous chemicals.

A number of makers of baby clothes also make a range of organic items or you can find shops solely committed to organic baby clothes. Either way, there are a lot of brands to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from infants to adolescents. Obviously, organic clothes for men and women is also accessible and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

I do not think that I am only going to purchase organic cotton or bamboo clothing (which is a good alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my child but I am definitely going try to whenever I can.
