Organic Cotton
Terminology: Organic Cotton (and why we should use it.) Organically grown cotton is not treated with pesticides, herbicides, or petroleum based fertilizers, nor does it use genetically engineered seed. In the United States, Egypt, India, and other countries, farmers are raising cotton organically, without the use of costly, often ineffective and dangerous chemicals.Look at labels and buy organic when given the option. Tres eco-chic!
