Long before I had my first child, I never believed I would join a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I have become a new mother, chatting to other women about what is taking place in my life has been a huge help. We chat about how we bring up our children, what to do and not to do, we share meal plans, and we love to discuss the latest baby clothes we have purchased.

I usually meet with 4 other mothers, once a week, to hear about the latest gossip. We generally meet at Brownville House (which is in BROWNVILLE, NE) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last week was particularly interesting seeing we discussed baby clothes. I have been feeding my baby organic meals from the start but I had never thought about buying organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular crops in America and one of the most devastating to the environment and to farm employees. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has damaged the environment and in particular water ways. Organic products are produced without using artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Rather, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic pest control techniques.

You can buy soft organic cotton baby outfits online from a number of shops. Sckoon has some beautiful organic baby apparel.

Benefits of Organic Baby Clothing

Getting organic clothing means you are buying clothes which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at a minimum in a way which causes less damage to the environment. No or reduced use of insecticides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our soils and lakes, fewer health problems for farm workers, and fewer health risks for our children by moderating their contact with toxic chemicals.

Many makers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic clothes or you can find wholesalers solely dedicated to organic baby clothing. Either way, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are provided for, from toddlers to older children. Obviously, organic fashion for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my man.

I do not think that I am only ever going to get organic cotton or bamboo cotton clothing (which is an amazing alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my baby but I am without a doubt going try to whenever possible.
