Before I had my first child, I never thought I would join a mothers group. Be that as it may, now that I am finally a new mother, talking to other mothers about what is happening in my life has really helped me. We chat about how we bring up our children, what to do and not to do, we share baby food recipes, and we love to talk about the latest baby outfits we have picked up.

I usually get together with 2 other women, once a week, to find out the latest happenings. We often meet at Bayview Lodge Resort (which is in POYNETTE, WI) as that is quite central for all of us. Last time was particularly exciting seeing we discussed organic baby clothing. I have been giving my baby boy organic food from the beginning but I had never thought about getting organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most broadly grown crops in America and one of the most harmful to the environment and to farm workers. The run off from cotton farms has ruined the environment and particularly water bodies. Organic produce is grown without the use of artificial fertilisers and chemicals. Instead, organic farming depends on things like crop rotation, raising the quality of soils naturally, and using organic insect control techniques.

You can purchase soft organic cotton baby apparel online from a number of shops. Sckoon has some of the cutest organic baby clothing.

Benefits of Organic Clothing

Buying organic clothing means you are purchasing clothes which have been produced in an eco-friendly manner, or at the very least in a way which causes less contamination of our habitat. No or less use of insecticides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our land and waterways, less diseases for farmers, and fewer health risks for children by reducing their contact with potentially dangerous chemicals.

Quite a few retailers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic clothing or you can find companies entirely devoted to organic baby clothing. Thankfully, there are a lot of designs to choose from and all ages are taken care of, from toddlers to teenagers. Of course, organic clothes for men and women is also available and I am looking into that for myself and my partner.

I do not think that I am only going to get organic cotton or bamboo clothing (which is an amazing alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my children but I am without a doubt going try to whenever possible.
