Why Organic Cotton?

Mixing breathable comfort with sustainable materials, organic cotton is a classic for a reason. With so many questions floating around the internet, from asking what does organic mean to why buy organic at all, we thought we’d break down our favorite facts about this planet-friendly pick.

It’s better for you

Simply put, the materials that we bring into our homes matter. One of the biggest benefits is that organic cotton, unlike conventionally grown alternatives, are free of pesticides, herbicides, and synthetic fertilizers. When you’re crawling into organic cotton bedding, that makes a real difference. At the same time, organic cotton is also hypoallergenic and crafted with natural dyes, reducing the risk of irritation for people with sensitive skin or allergies.

It’s better for the planet

Organic cotton is farmed with sustainable methods that prioritize the health of the soil, contribute to water conservation, and protect ecosystems. From rotating crops to composting, organic farmers are reducing the staggering impact that conventional cotton production can have on our environment. Making the switch to organic cotton can help your space play a small, but meaningful role in preserving the planet’s resources.
