Back before I had my first child, I had not thought I would join 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 benefited me immensely. We talk about how we deal with our children, what to do and not to do, we share recipes, and we enjoy being able to talk about the newest baby outfits we have purchased.

I more often than not meet with 3 other women, once a week, to find out the latest happenings. We usually meet at Sierra Marketplace - JOX (which is in RENO, NV) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last time was more interesting seeing we chatted about organic baby clothing. I have been providing my baby boy organic produce from the beginning but I had not considered getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular products in the world and one of the most devastating to the ecosystem and to farm employees. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has damaged the environment and in particular water supplies. Organic products are grown without the need for artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Instead, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using eco friendly pest control techniques.

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

Benefits of Organic Baby Clothing

Buying organic clothes means you are purchasing produce which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at the very least in a way which causes less contamination of soils and waterways. No or reduced use of insecticides and fertilizers means less pollution of our farms and lakes, reduced cancers for farmers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by reducing their contact with dangerous chemicals.

A number of retailers of baby clothes also produce a range of organic clothes or you can find companies solely dedicated 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. Naturally, organic clothes for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my husband.

I would not go as far to say that I am only ever going to buy organic cotton or bamboo cotton clothing (which is an amazing alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my child but I am absolutely going try to whenever it is available.
