Organic cotton garments are an ethical and sustainable alternative to fast, throwaway fashion.<\/p>
No pesticides are used on the cotton we source, which means beneficial insects can stay in the ecosystem, promoting biodiversity and balance. Farming organic cotton also uses less water to grow because growers typically utilise rain water far more than artificial irrigation.<\/p>
And the water that runs off the cotton fields doesn't contain chemicals, so plants and people in the same area are protected as well.<\/p>
Sadly the traditional cotton farming industry is known for forced and child labour. We are proud to say our supply chain is audited to ensure safe, positive and fair working conditions and pay.<\/p>
Not only are organic cotton clothes soft and breathable, they get softer with every wash. Our garments are more durable than most fabrics - meaning they last longer and provide better value for your money.<\/p>","urlTitle":"how-is-organic-cotton-sustainable","url":"\/blog\/how-is-organic-cotton-sustainable\/","editListUrl":"\/my-blogs","editUrl":"\/my-blogs\/edit\/how-is-organic-cotton-sustainable\/","fullUrl":"https:\/\/tabbyfirefly.com\/blog\/how-is-organic-cotton-sustainable\/","featured":false,"published":true,"showOnSitemap":true,"hidden":false,"visibility":null,"createdAt":1617555716,"updatedAt":1617906232,"publishedAt":1617906232,"lastReadAt":null,"division":{"id":127693,"name":"TABBY FIREFLY"},"tags":[],"metaImage":{"original":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/blwaiqgwuwvt3mrewmxkydgjswbp9xwwbpfs50aep12hztnr.jpeg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/blwaiqgwuwvt3mrewmxkydgjswbp9xwwbpfs50aep12hztnr.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/blwaiqgwuwvt3mrewmxkydgjswbp9xwwbpfs50aep12hztnr.jpeg.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"metaTitle":"","metaDescription":"","keyPhraseCampaignId":null,"series":[],"similarReads":[{"id":12979,"title":"Recycle Week 2022","url":"\/blog\/recycle-week\/","urlTitle":"recycle-week","division":127693,"description":"Every year for a week in September, Recycle Now holds Recycling Week.
