Back before I had my baby, I never believed I would join a mothers group. Anyhow, now that I am a mother, being able to talk to other mothers about what is happening in my life has really helped me. 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 chat about the newest baby outfits we have picked up.

I usually meet with 3 other women, once a month, to catch up on the latest new. We often meet at Culvers Frozen Custard - Deforest (which is in DE FOREST, WI) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last time was more eye opening because we talked about organic baby clothing. I have been feeding my baby girl organic food from the start but I had never thought about getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular crops in the world and one of the most harmful to the environment and to farm employees. The run off from these farms has ruined the environment and especially water supplies. Organic produce is grown without the use of artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Instead, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic insect control practices.

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

Benefits of Choosing Organic Products

Buying 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 contamination of soils and waterways. No or less use of pesticides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our farms and lakes, reduced cancers for farm workers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by lessening their contact with potentially dangerous chemicals.

Several producers of baby clothes also produce a range of organic clothes or you can find companies entirely dedicated to organic baby fashion. Thankfully, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are catered for, from babies to teenagers. Obviously, organic clothing for men and women is also available and I am looking into that for myself and my husband.

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