Cheek-A-Mo Designs, Inc.
was founded by a first time mom who was frustrated with baby
clothing that made dressing and diaper changes
difficult. Some baby clothing is just not
very practical, since babies have soft and wobbly head and necks,
and babies need frequent diaper changes. The
founder soon began to notice that conventional cotton clothing
sometimes irritated her baby's sensitive skin. These factors
motivated her to search for organic clothing that made more
sense. In addition, finding things that were "natural" like it
claims on the label became increasing difficult and it became a
concern. It was hard to find herbs or health products that
claimed to be natural and was free of toxic ingredients
like methylparaben and/or propylparaben, preservatives commonly
found in everyday products such as shampoo and lotions.
So
why Organic? For one, it is better for the environment and
two, better for our health. More energy is now
used than ever to till, cultivate and harvest all the crops in
the U.S. Conventional cotton occupies only 3% of the world's
farmland, but uses 25% of the world's chemical pesticides and
fertilizers. GMO (genetically modified) cotton now accounts
for 75% of conventional crop grown in the United States. In
the U.S. alone, it's estimated that 800 million pounds of pesticides
will be used on cotton each year. Cotton ranks number 3
in crops with the heaviest pesticide use in the world. Some of
the chemical used on conventional cotton include the infamous
defoliant Paraquat and insecticides like Parathion which is 60 times
more toxic than DDT! 5 out of 9 pesticides used on cotton are
cancer causing chemicals.
With organic farming,
crops are rotated to protect the soil and farmers use compost and
naturally derived mineral and plant products for fertilizers.
And most importantly, what happens to the planet, the quality
of things, the intention behind the invention, what your baby uses,
eat, smells and touches are all great reasons to buy organic.
The benefit of producing cotton organically to the consumer,
especially our babies, is the softness and quality that only organic
cotton can provide. It is truly unmatched and one of the top reasons
people choose organic cotton for their delicate baby's
skin.
