Baby Naturopathics Inc : They have their own line
of 100% certified organic cotton embroidered infant
clothes. Clothing is wholly made under the watchful eye of SKAL
International, an internationally recognized body based in the
Netherlands that inspects organic production methods. They did
this so that the entire garment is SKAL certified, and not just
the cotton fabric. Not all natural clothing is created equal.
Be careful of cotton that is described as "undyed", "untreated",
"natural" or "green" cotton. These labels are sometimes used to
market conventional cotton. To ensure that you are buying an
organic cotton product, look for "certified organic" cotton.
Certified organic cotton has been inspected by a well-recognized
third-party certifier such as Demeter International, Agreco,
Skal International, and the Soil Association. In addition, look
for "100% organic cotton". "Organic cotton" or "made with
organic cotton" is not necessarily the same as "100% organic
cotton". For example, an outfit that is made with SKAL
certified organic cotton from one country, and then further
processed in another country can no longer be considered SKAL
certified as SKAL inspects the whole production process. Thus,
you should choose a garment that is SKAL certified, rather than
a garment simply made of SKAL certified organic cotton. This is
an important distinction as the integrity of organic cotton
fabric can be weakened by adding embellishments that have not
undergone SKAL inspection. Examples of such alterations include
nickel fastenings which may cause skin irritation, and iron-on
transfers and that may contain ingredients like phthalates.
For their baby clothing and accessories, they have chosen
organic dyes, which are kinder to your health and that of the
environment than conventional AZO dyes. AZO dyes contain toxic
chemicals such as chlorine bleach and heavy metals. They also do
not biodegrade easily and some dyes are cancer causing. Their
clothing and accessories are made in India. They indicated that
they personally inspected the production facilities, so they can
attest to the fact that their apparel is sweatshop free (SKAL
also sets out criteria for working conditions).

Since they are committed to using only top quality factories that treat and compensate their workers fairly, they indicate that they never use sweatshop labor. They work with a small number of farms, weavers and dye-houses that are chosen for the environmental sustainability. They choose their employees for their commitment to producing good work and they do their best to create an environment of compassion, optimism and humor in what is known to be a stressful industry. They value quality before growth, people before profit, and they are happy to take part in a company that is green, not only in its products, but in its point of view. They supply clothiong for women & men's dress, casual and retreat styles. The cotton is grown by small farms in Texas, Northern California and North Carolina and then is woven or knit into fabric by textile mills in North and South Carolina. A sketch and idea is born in our Boston studio and the fabric is chosen and purchased from one of the mills. A sample is then made by a local seamstress in MA. Once all the details and settled and buttons are chosen or length changed, a local marker man grades the pattern for mass production. If the fabric needs to be dyed, it’s sent to a local dye house in NH which specializes in direct dye without using heavy metals. The fabric is then shipped to a local MA factory for cutting, this is where they cut all the fabric pieces for the finished garment. The pieces are then sent to a woman owned factory in MA where they are sewn into finished garments. The clothes are checked for quality control at Cottonfield and then wrapped and sent off to you ! Faerie's Dance : at FaeriesDance.com they are committed to providing a complete environmentally conscious shopping experience for their customers.

Jim Morris : Since
1995, they have printed tan organic t-shirts. Now they are happy
to offer organic cotton shirts in colors. All their adult short
sleeve uni-sex t-shirts are now organic. Organic cotton is
cotton that is grown without the use of pesticides. Pesticides
kill millions of birds, fish, and other wildlife. They also harm
farmworkers and neighbors of the fields. Pesticides blow around
and harm people and wildlife thousands of miles away. According
to them, conventional cotton uses approx 25 % of the world's
chemical pesticides! They hope you'll support their conversion
to organic. As awareness of the value of organic cotton spreads
and as availability increases, they look forward to being able
to offer womens, youth, long sleeves, and sweatshirts in
organic. Also, their natural totebags are organic cotton canvas
and made in Colorado. Kasper Organics : When Aleta first learned about organic cotton clothing, she knew she wanted to make it a part of her life. She always thought cotton (conventional) was a good, natural product. It never occurred to her that the cotton clothing she was complacently buying was loaded with toxic chemicals. Not just the pesticides, herbicides and synthetic fertilizers used to grow the cotton, but the chemicals used to process, bleach and dye the cotton as well. She thought to herself, "If I was buying organically grown food for my family, why was I buying toxic clothing? What we wear may not seem as important as what we eat, but our skin is not a solid barrier protecting us from everything we come into contact with. Our skin lives and breathes and can also absorb toxins". Aleta now sells organic cotton clothing, hemp clothing and accessories. Live Life Organics : organic clothing with positive messages, tagless/ hangtags grow wildflowers, water-based inks.

Since 1992 they have been manufacturing cotton-based products for some of America's largest companies, such as Nike, Pepsi and Speedo. At the time, they didn't realize how damaging cotton is to the environment. The more they learned about the problems with conventional cotton, the more uncomfortable they became. Growing conventional cotton causes harm to people, wildlife and the environment. You probably know this or you wouldn't be looking for organic clothing suppliers. Onno Textiles has moved away from conventional cotton, to organic t-shirts in order to feel energized and passionate about their products. Although organic cotton costs more, ONNO buys the most expensive raw materials they can get our hands. And, they have a unique method of making shirts… the result will have you murmuring, repeatedly, “oh yes”. Rawganique.com is
