Why Organic?

It seems that the perceptions of tree hugging hippies being the only people who cared about natural products is well behind us!

As we become more aware of the environment we live in, many more main stream people like us care about the impact of what we buy has on our families and the earth generally!

It is believed that in America alone $2.6 billion dollars worth of pesticides are used on cotton fields every year! It is also believed that 5 of the top 9 carcinogenic chemicals are used in growing and manufacturing cotton products!

If that is not enough to think about, children that suffer with eczema find relief with Organic Clothing that they do not get with traditional cotton clothing!

Here are some more good reasons:

It helps protects your children. Children are at a greater risk for pesticide-related health problems as their skin is thinner, more fragile and less oily than adults.
It reduces pesticide use which is better for the environment and everything living on it.

It protects farm workers as they get a fair premium for their crop and they work in a healthy, pesticide free zone.
It protects water quality. Soil water is not compromised by run off from dangerous herbicides and pesticides

Soil erosion is prevented.  Strong healthy soil is built.
It is a sturdier fabric lasting up to 10x longer than conventionally produced cotton. Cotton fibres in conventionally produced cotton take so much abuse in production from scouring, bleaching, dying, softeners, formaldehyde spray, and flame and soil retardants before it is even shipped to be cut for patterns!
