I Need New Reusable Bags & Hate Shopping (sos… help!)

So, I need new bags, and as mentioned, hate shopping. I really do. I like, actually love, to look at products - clothes, baby stuff, green stuff, etc, but when you get right down to it, I hate to buy stuff.
I do however need new bags. I have some reusable grocery bags but they’re seriously […]

Earth-Friendly Shoes for Kids

I’m following up our very weak eco-clothing for kids post with an even sadder look at youth shoes. There aren’t that many earth-friendly shoes for kids - and some who do have them make them in styles that no child I know would agree to wear; more slipper than shoe.
There’s lots for babies; ironic since […]

Organic clothing for kids who are older than toddlers - (good luck!)

It’s easy to find organic baby clothing, and somewhat easy to find adult organic clothing. Kids past the toddler stage are more difficult. Maybe it doesn’t sell well, or maybe parents feel like only babies need protection from chemicals in traditional fabrics, or maybe it’s just that the Hannah Montana obsessed generation will only buy […]

Organic clothing & one super adorable kid

I had something else planned for late afternoon. Then I was doing a post on green maternity clothing for my pregnancy blog, and found the cutest picture of a kid ever. Seriously. This kid is so cute.

Patagonia: Men’s Organic Clothing

Yesterday we looked at Apparel of the Earth, a nice place to find men’s organic cotton clothing.
Now, let’s wander over to Patagonia. They are a bit more pricey than Apparel of the Earth, and you can’t assume all of their organic clothing is 100% organic cotton (some of it is a blend). They are still […]

Why Choose Organic Cotton Clothing

This week we’re talking about some places you can shop for men’s organic cotton clothing, so now seems like the perfect time to talk about why anyone should buy organic clothing.
Conventionally Grown Cotton:

-Accounts for a quarter of the pesticides used worldwide.
-Pollutes our groundwater, leaving a mess for future generations.
-Also, preparing conventional cotton (after farming ends) […]

Apparel of the Earth: Men’s Organic Clothing

First, that’s just such a cool name for a clothing company. Apparel of the Earth doesn’t just sound earthy though. According to their site, they are committed to being a worldwide leader in the organic fashion movement.
Apparel of the Earth offers hemp and organic cotton clothing and accessories for men, women and babies. But this […]
