Several of the fabrics and yarns are also made from things that are sustainable and eco-friendly like hemp, bamboo and wool. More on that later. Please explore our products and look around...

Hemp
And now for that more on sustainable eco-friendly materials....
Hemp is an untreated fabric made from the hemp plant.
It does not require the use of pesticides in its farming and therefore may not
contain the organic label. However, ask about the make up of the fabric if you
are buying online, because hemp can be blended with conventional cotton- the hemp cotton blend that we use is a 55% hemp and 45% cotton blend knit made from organic cotton! A great fabric
for diapers, pads, or clothing. Smooth on one side and brushed on the other
just like your favorite sweatshirt. Stays soft wash after wash. Hemp fabric
contains natural antimicrobial properties and is more durable and absorbent which makes it perfect for cloth
diapers and diapering accessories. Absorbs and holds much more than regular cotton alone. Lasts far longer than traditional cotton fabrics.
Bamboo
It can be stronger than iron, yet fragile as paper. It can be eaten as
well as worn. As a source of medicine, it can heal. It cleans the air
and makes music in the wind. Now, make room in your closets for the
newest in textile plants... bamboo.
As the fastest growing woody plant on earth, bamboo has a short growth cycle. Some bamboo species can grow up to one meter daily, which makes it a rapidly renewable resource. Because it is so versatile and high-yielding, it solves the problem of replenishing many consumables within a short time.
The pesticides have not been a factor with bamboo, and because it grows like a weed, it should not require great amounts of fertilizer. Still, organic certification for bamboo is not yet available since most of the bamboo used in the states comes from China. The best we have is the "Oeko Tex Standard 100" certification, which promises that there are no harmful chemicals in the finished fiber (even if chemicals were used in the processing of that fiber).
