I am a virgin! (Haven't been able to say that for a while!) <BR/>Many of the "green folk" out there may cringe when they read this. At some point over the holidays I recall seeing organic cotton products in Walmart, of all places. So, I just checked out their web site and found baby clothes under the brand name "George baby organics." I didn't research to see if they are certified,yet. I believe that we are going to see them crop up in all the big box stores soon. Mindful folks, like you, are demanding it!!!<BR/>I can already see that this blog thing is going to get me in trouble. It is 5:20. The house is a wreck, the dinner uncooked and the laundry piled high to be folded. Oh well,thanks for the fun diversion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286145246271411321.post-16951570938008869742008-02-21T15:20:00.000-05:002008-02-21T15:20:00.000-05:00Hey, I was going to suggest, too, that you check o...Hey, I was going to suggest, too, that you check out Hanna Andersson stuff. Some of her baby onesies are fairly reasonable (for organic) like <A HREF="http://www.hannaandersson.com/style.asp?from=SC%7C16%7C1%7C156%7C5%7C5%7C%7C&simg=32653_001" REL="nofollow">this one</A> is only $14. And even her ccotton's that aren't organic usually meet <A HREF="http://www.hannaandersson.com/aboutHanna.asp?pg=173" REL="nofollow">Oko-Tex 100 Standards</A>.<BR/><BR/>And if you stop in <A HREF="http://hyenacart.com/Spots_corner/index.php?category=4" REL="nofollow">here</A> - the Children's Clothing page of the Spot's Corner resale shop at Hyena Cart - you will see Hanna stuff listed from time to time.<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps!Megan@SortaCrunchyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17202909752129884370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286145246271411321.post-65436258178563565272008-02-21T14:40:00.000-05:002008-02-21T14:40:00.000-05:00I totally feel ya on this.

I was also going to suggest buying used if you can or swapping with someone. I don't know if you are a memeber of the Mothering forums or not (mothering.com) but if you are member there for sixty days and have fifty posts, you can use their buy/sell/trade forum (called The Trading Post) and there are ALWAYS people listing used organic clothing there.<BR/><BR/>Not a whole lot of help. Sorry. I am in the same quandry you are in!Megan@SortaCrunchyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17202909752129884370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286145246271411321.post-58729808454635949232008-02-21T12:35:00.000-05:002008-02-21T12:35:00.000-05:00i hear ya. that price tag is hard to swallow which...i hear ya. that price tag is hard to swallow which is probably why we haven't moved to organic clothes yet either. thanks for laying out all of the benefits. i just wish they were more affordable.Crunchy Domestic Goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04546426544439507593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286145246271411321.post-88816552867635449322008-02-21T11:20:00.000-05:002008-02-21T11:20:00.000-05:00Hi!

Might I suggest also checking w/ other "green" friends for their outgrown organics? Seriously. My childhood best friend & I used to trade baby clothes through the mail; while it was $20-$30 postage from NY to CO, we were amazed at how much we could fit into a Priority Mail box (and all those clothes undoubtedly new would cost way more). Living in Ithaca, she always got really rockin' baby clothes (all cottons especially). When her 2nd was born, I sent the outgrown ones back to her for Girl2 to use.
