Back before I had my baby, I never imagined I would belong to a mothers group. Anyhow, now that I am finally a mum, chatting to other women about what is going on in my life has been a huge help. We talk about how we raise our children, what to do and not to do, we share recipes, and we like to discuss the latest baby fashions we have bought.

I usually meet with 4 other parents, once a month, to hear about the latest gossip. We usually meet at Radisson Hotels Worldwide Beachwood (which is in BEACHWOOD, OH) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last week was more eye opening seeing we chatted about organic baby clothes. I have been providing my baby girl organic food from the beginning but I had never thought about getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most widely grown plants in the world and one of the most harmful to the ecosystem and to farm employees. The run off from cotton farms has destroyed habitats and particularly water supplies. Organic cotton is grown without the need for artificial fertilisers and insecticides. Rather, organic farming depends upon things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using eco friendly pest control practices.

You can purchase organic baby clothing online from a number of shops. Sckoon has some gorgeous organic baby clothes.

Benefits of Organic Clothing

Getting organic clothes means you are purchasing 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 less use of pesticides and fertilisers means less pollution of our farms and rivers, less health problems for farmers, and fewer health risks for our children by reducing their contact with potentially dangerous chemicals.

Several wholesalers of baby clothes also produce a range of organic items or you can find wholesalers solely dedicated to organic baby clothes. Either way, there are a lot of brands to choose from and all ages are provided for, from babies to teenagers. Naturally, organic fashion for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

I am not saying that I am only going to get organic cotton or bamboo cotton clothing (which is a fantastic alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my child but I am without a doubt going try to whenever it is available.
