If you are planning to raise your child in a natural and environmentally friendly way, then organic baby clothing and bedding are very important factors.
Organic cotton is manufactured from organically grown cotton plants. No chemical pesticides or fertilisers are used to grow it, and the final cloth is unbleached and dyed with natural plant dyes.

Organic Cotton is the cloth of the future! Organic cotton is not only better for our bodies but better for our environment. It makes a world of difference in the health and comfort of our babies, especially those with allergies, asthma, or multiple chemical sensitivities. Your baby can enjoy the purest softness, comfort and strength of cotton while diminishing the harm to our environment because what is toxic to you, is 15 times more toxic to a baby.

Many people believe that we should not ingest pesticides into our bodies, but haven't figured out that we shouldn't put them on our bodies either. What many people don't know about conventional cotton is that besides being grown with tons of chemicals that it is then subjected to abundant chemical baths and treatments when the fabric is loomed and prepared for cutting. Furthermore, cotton is usually dyed and these dyes can contain heavy metals.

Crisp white cotton is thought of as a very natural fabric, but it is actually more environmentally-damaging than most synthetic textiles! Cotton is one of the most environmentally damaging crops grown in the world. Because it is not a food crop, cotton is routinely sprayed with an even heavier cocktail of pesticide poisons than normal agricultural crops. In developing countries, more than 50% of all pesticides used in agriculture are sprayed onto cotton fields.

In conventional cotton clothing, each t-shirt that is produced uses approximately 150g of a range of toxic chemicals, such as Paraquat and Parathion, in fact, The Environment Protection Agency considers 7 of the top 15 pesticides used on cotton as 'probable' or 'known' human carcinogens, and it is estimated that less than 10% of the chemicals applied to cotton accomplish their task, the rest are absorbed into the plant, air, soil, water and eventually, our bodies.
So, the choice is yours!
