Back before I had my first child, I never imagined I would be part of a mothers group. Anyhow, now that I have become a new mother, talking to other women about what is going on in my life has benefited me immensely. We chat about how we deal with our children, what to do and not to do, we share baby food recipes, and we love to discuss the newest baby clothes we have picked up.

I generally go out with 3 other mothers, once a month, to find out the latest happenings. We often meet at Pepe's Diner (which is in SAN ANGELO, TX) as that is pretty central for all of us. Last time was really eye opening seeing we discussed baby clothes. I have been giving my baby organic produce from day one but it had never crossed my mind to buying organic clothing for her.

Cotton is one of the most popular products in America and one of the most ruinous to the environment and to farmers. The run off from non-organic cotton farms has destroyed ecosystems and especially water bodies. Organic products are grown without the use of artificial fertilisers and pesticides. Instead, organic farming relies on things like crop rotation, improving soils naturally, and using organic insect control practices.

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

Benefits of Organic Baby Clothing

Getting organic clothes means you are purchasing produce which have been produced in an environmentally friendly manner, or at least in a way which causes less damage to soils and waterways. No or less use of insecticides and synthetic fertilisers means less pollution of our farms and lakes, reduced cancers for farmers, and fewer health risks for children by moderating their contact with dangerous chemicals.

Many producers of baby clothes also sell a range of organic items or you can find retailers entirely devoted to organic baby fashion. Either way, there are a lot of brands to choose from and all ages are provided for, from toddlers to adolescents. Obviously, organic fashion for men and women is also accessible 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 purchase organic cotton or bamboo clothing (which is an excellent alternative to regular or organic cotton) for my baby but I am definitely going try to whenever possible.
