Back before I had my baby, I never really thought I would belong to a mothers group. However, now that I am finally a mum, talking to other mothers about what is going on in my life has really helped me. We discuss how we raise our children, what to do and not to do, we share recipes, and we love to talk about the latest baby outfits we have picked up.

I usually get together with 3 other parents, once a month, to catch up on the latest new. We often meet at Sports Page Saloon (which is in WHEAT RIDGE, CO) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last month was more eye opening because we discussed baby clothes. I have been providing my baby girl organic food from day one but it had never crossed my mind to purchasing organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular crops in the world and one of the most ruinous to the ecosystem and to farmers. The run off from these farms has ruined ecosystems and especially water ways. Organic cotton is grown without using artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Alternatively, organic farming depends upon things like crop rotation, enhancing soils naturally, and using organic insect control techniques.

You can buy organic cotton baby outfits online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some beautiful organic baby clothing.

Benefits of Organic Clothing

Purchasing organic clothes means you are getting products which have been produced in an eco friendly manner, or at the very least in a way which causes less pollution of soils and waterways. No or a reduction in the use of pesticides and fertilisers means less pollution of our land and rivers, fewer diseases for farmers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by reducing their contact with dangerous chemicals.

Many producers of baby clothes also produce a range of organic clothes or you can find shops solely committed to organic baby fashion. Either way, there are a lot of brands to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from babies to adolescents. Obviously, organic clothing 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 an amazing alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my baby but I am without a doubt going try to whenever it is available.
