organic cotton

Eco friendly clothing represents a return to safe and sustainable practices. Organic cotton is grown with natural fertilizers and is free from toxic chemicals.

Organic farmers rely on crop rotation to replenish and maintain soil fertility. Mechanical cultivation and botanical or biological means are used to control pests and weeds.
 
A field must be pesticide-free for at least three years to be certified organic, and the cotton must be processed according to international organic standards. 

The standards also set strict guidelines for transportation and storage to avoid cross-contamination. In the U.S., cotton labelled as organic has to be certified by an independent agency recognized by the USDA’s National Organic Program.
