About organic cotton
Organic farming practices avoid using harmful chemicals while aiming
for environmental sustainability and the use of fewer resources. This
results in improved health, access to clean water and food supplies, and
a longer cotton commodity lifespan. It also means the products we use
are safer for us since they don’t contain the myriad of chemicals often
found in conventional cotton garments.
