Organic September 🌎

Organic September 🌎

It’s Organic September, and we want to share why choosing organic is so important to us 🌍 We prioritise working with environmentally and ethically responsible manufacturing partners, and we’re proud to use GOTS organic cotton and dyes in all our products. From making a positive impact on the environment to caring for the well-being of little one’s health, the reasons to choose organic are endless. Read below to learn more

Organic farming prioritises sustainability, biodiversity, and the health of both the environment and the people who produce and use organic products. Organic farming means growing crops without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Instead, organic farmers use natural methods like crop rotation, composting, and biological pest control to maintain soil health and reduce the environmental impact.

Non-organic farming, on the other hand, relies heavily on chemical inputs, such as synthetic fertilisers and pesticides, which can deplete soil nutrients, harm wildlife, and contaminate water sources. These practices may yield faster-growing crops but often at the expense of long-term soil health and biodiversity. Organic farming seeks to create a sustainable balance, ensuring that the land remains fertile for future generations.

The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the leading certification for organic fibers, including cotton. It ensures that the entire supply chain, from harvesting the raw materials to environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing, adheres to strict guidelines. It’s not only the organic status of textiles but also ethical labour practices, water use, and the prohibition of toxic chemicals in the production process.

GOTS certification is a trustworthy guarantee that the product is genuinely organic and produced in a way that respects both people and the planet.

Organic farming protects our environment by prioritising sustainable practices that reduce harm to ecosystems and here’s how:

Helps soil health by enhancing biodiversity and using natural fertilisers like compost. Organic farming avoids synthetic chemicals, allowing the soil to retain its nutrients, structure, and ability to support crops for the long term.

Conserves water by using rain-fed irrigation systems and improving soil’s water retention capacity. Organic cotton farming requires significantly less water than conventional methods, largely because it enhances soil structure, which holds moisture more effectively. This reduces the strain on local water sources, especially in areas prone to drought.

Protects habitats by avoiding harmful pesticides and herbicides, which can poison wildlife and degrade ecosystems. By maintaining natural pest control methods and biodiversity, organic farms create healthier environments for insects, birds, and animals to thrive.

Reduces pollution by eliminating the use of synthetic chemicals that can seep into water supplies and air, affecting both human health and the environment. Organic dyes, made from natural ingredients, avoid the toxic runoff that is typical of conventional fabric dyes, helping to keep waterways and ecosystems cleaner.

Organic cotton and dyes not only safeguard the environment but also have significant social and ethical benefits for farming communities. By avoiding harmful pesticides, organic farming eliminates the risk of chemical runoff into local water sources, which in conventional farming can lead to increased health risks from water contamination.

Certifications like GOTS ensure fair wages and safe working conditions, promoting ethical labour practices often lacking in conventional farming. These certifications also invest in education, helping communities adopt sustainable practices for long-term development. Choosing organic means supporting healthier, safer communities.

When it comes to your baby’s delicate skin, we know that only the best will do. Organic cotton is naturally softer and more breathable than conventional cotton, making it an ideal choice for baby clothing and accessories. Since organic cotton is grown without the use of toxic pesticides and synthetic fertilisers, it is less likely to cause skin irritations or allergic reactions too.

The natural fibres in organic cotton allow air to circulate more freely, making it more breathable compared to conventional cotton. Organic cotton retains its natural softness and ability to wick moisture away from the skin, as opposed to conventionally grown cotton, which is often treated with chemicals that affect the fabric’s structure and breathability. This helps regulate body temperature, keeping your little one cool in warmer weather and reduces the risk of irritation or overheating. Organic cotton’s unprocessed fibers create a lighter, more breathable fabric, perfect for delicate skin.

The fibres in organic cotton are left intact, rather than being weakened by the harsh chemicals used in conventional cotton production. This results in a stronger, more resilient fabric that can withstand the wear and tear of daily use. This durability means organic cotton products last longer and can be passed down and reused multiple times, which is more sustainable than buying new.
