When sourcing baby clothes for our online boutique, www.bobelle.co.uk, we only wished to sell orgnically grown cotton. We are a boutique who operates under a 'green umbrella' where we support and promote fair trade, recycling and natural and organic production. I had to to do a lot of research into finding a suitable supplier who also agrees with BoBelle's strong ethos. Organic cotton was mandatory as we could not dream of selling items which have had pesticides on them. Fortunately, the organic and natural words are growing among the public and I sincerely hope we see more pesticide-free cotton which not only protects the wearer, but the producer, too.
