Long before I had my first child, I had not imagined I would join a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I have become a mum, chatting to other mothers about what is taking place in my life has benefited me immensely. We chat about how we raise our children, what to do and not to do, we share baby food recipes, and we enjoy being able to talk about the most recent baby outfits we have purchased.

I more often than not go out with 2 other mothers, once a week, to find out the latest gossip. We usually meet at Pizza Gallery (which is in EPHRAIM, UT) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last month was more interesting seeing we chatted about organic baby clothes. I have been providing my baby boy organic food from the start but I had not considered purchasing organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular products in the US and one of the most ruinous to the habitat and to farm workers. The run off from cotton farms has ruined the environment and in particular water supplies. Organic products are grown without the use of artificial fertilisers and pesticides. Rather, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic pest control methods.

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

Benefits of Organic Baby Clothing

Purchasing organic products means you are getting produce which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at a minimum in a way which causes less pollution of soils and waterways. No or less use of pesticides and fertilizers means less pollution of our land and rivers, reduced health problems for farm workers, and fewer health risks for children by moderating their contact with potentially dangerous chemicals.

Many wholesalers of baby clothes also produce a range of organic clothes or you can find companies completely committed to organic baby fashion. Thankfully, there are a lot of designs to choose from and all ages are provided for, from babies to adolescents. Naturally, organic clothes for men and women is also available and I am looking into that for myself and my man.

I would not go as far to say that I am only going to get organic cotton or bamboo clothes (which is a great alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my child but I am absolutely going try to whenever I can.
