Long before I had my first child, I never imagined I would join a mothers group. However, 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 raise our children, what to do and not to do, we share recipes, and we enjoy being able to chat about the latest baby fashions we have bought.

I usually meet with 4 other women, once a week, to find out the latest new. We generally meet at Holy Wong Chinese Restaurant (which is in HACKETTSTOWN, NJ) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last time was particularly exciting seeing we talked about organic baby clothing. I have been giving my baby girl organic food from day one 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 habitat and to farm workers. The run off from cotton farms has destroyed ecosystems and especially water bodies. Organic products are produced without using artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Instead, organic farming depends upon things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic insect control techniques.

You can get soft organic cotton baby clothing online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some of the cutest organic baby clothing.

Benefits of Organic Clothing

Buying organic clothes means you are getting products 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 a reduction in the use of insecticides and fertilizers means less pollution of our land and lakes, fewer health problems for farmers, and fewer health risks for children by reducing their contact with dangerous chemicals.

A number of wholesalers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic clothing or you can find designers solely devoted to organic baby fashion. Thankfully, there are a lot of marks to choose from and all ages are catered for, from babies 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 do not think that I am just going to buy organic cotton or bamboo clothes (which is an amazing alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my child but I am most definitely going try to whenever I can.
