Before I had my children, I had not imagined I would join a mothers group. However, now that I am finally a mother, chatting to other parents about what is taking place in my life has been a huge help. We chat about how we raise our children, what to do and not to do, we share baby food recipes, and we love to chat about the most recent baby clothes we have purchased.

I usually go out with 3 other parents, once a fortnight, to hear about the latest new. We generally meet at Pickled Okra (which is in CLEVELAND, MS) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last time was particularly exciting because we chatted about baby clothes. I have been feeding my baby girl organic meals from day one but I had never thought about purchasing organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most broadly grown plants in America and one of the most devastating to the ecosystem and to farm employees. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has damaged habitats and particularly water supplies. Organic cotton is grown without using artificial fertilisers and pesticides. Instead, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic insect control techniques.

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

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Purchasing organic clothes means you are getting produce which have been produced in an eco-friendly manner, or at the very least in a way which causes less damage to the environment. No or less use of herbicides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our soils and lakes, fewer cancers for farm employees, and fewer health risks for our children by lessening their contact with toxic chemicals.

A number of wholesalers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic items or you can find stores completely committed to organic baby clothes. Either way, there are a lot of brands to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from toddlers to adolescents. Of course, organic clothes for men and women is also obtainable and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

I would not go as far to say that I am just going to get organic cotton or bamboo cotton clothing (which is a good alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my baby but I am absolutely going try to whenever possible.
