Organic cotton is grown using methods and
materials that have a low impact on the environment. Organic production
systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, reduce the use of toxic
and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically
diverse agriculture. Third-party certification organizations verify
that organic producers use only methods and materials allowed in
organic production.
The benefit to the consumer, especially
our babies, is the softness and quality that only organic cotton can
provide, it is truly unmatched and one of the top reasons people choose
organic cotton for their delicate baby's skin. The cotton that is grown
in conventional ways is compromised and weakened by the chemicals used
in growing, processing and dying of the cotton, all these things break
the fiber down and create a weaker, inferior cotton garment, that is
why you get a softer, stronger, better cotton using organic. A great
choice for you and an important choice for our environment.

BPA (Bisphenol-A) is a chemical compound sometimes found in plastic products, cosemetics, and foods. Recent studies suggest links between Bisphenol-A and developmental toxicity (e.g., reproductive consequences) and carcinogenic effects (e.g., cancers). Bisphenol-A has been found to leach from plastic into food and liquids.
