Back before I had my children, I never really thought I would join a mothers group. However, now that I am a mum, being able to talk to other parents about what is happening in my life has been a huge help. We discuss how we deal with our children, what to do and not to do, we share meal plans, and we love to discuss the latest baby fashions we have purchased.

I more often than not go out with 4 other mothers, once a week, to hear about the latest gossip. We often meet at Mad Platter Restaurant & Catering (which is in NASHVILLE, TN) as that is fairly central for all of us. Last week was more exciting seeing we chatted about organic baby clothing. I have been feeding my baby boy organic produce from day one but it had never crossed my mind to getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most broadly grown plants in the US and one of the most harmful to the habitat and to farm employees. The run off from these farms has damaged habitats and in particular water supplies. Organic products are produced without the need for artificial fertilisers and insecticides. Rather, organic farming depends upon things like crop rotation, enhancing soils naturally, and using organic insect control practices.

You can purchase beautiful organic baby clothes online from a number of stores. Sckoon has some beautiful organic baby apparel.

Benefits of Organic Clothing

Purchasing organic clothes means you are purchasing produce which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at a minimum in a way which causes less contamination of the environment. No or less use of pesticides and fertilizers means less pollution of our farms and waterways, reduced health problems for farmers, and fewer health risks for our babies and children by reducing their contact with dangerous chemicals.

A number of producers of baby clothes also make a range of organic clothing or you can find wholesalers solely devoted to organic baby fashion. Anyway, there are a lot of brands to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from toddlers to teenagers. Obviously, organic clothing for men and women is also accessible and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

I would not go as far to say that I am only ever going to purchase organic cotton or bamboo clothes (which is a great alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my children but I am most definitely going try to whenever it is available.
