Why We Love It

Conventional cotton is one of the most heavily treated crops grown in the world, and can account for up to 50% of total pesticide use in developing countries. Though organic cotton is available, it still only accounts for .2% of the cotton produced worldwide. In truth, the way cotton is grown contributes largely to the health and sustainability of the farms and farmers who produce it. Buying organic ensures the production of your cotton goods has had a positive impact on the planet.

Ethically Produced

Products made outside the US that have been handpicked from companies that employ fair wage and labor practices, as well as small-scale sustainable production methods. Profits from the sale of these products directly benefit the local artisanal communities where goods are made.

Handmade

Made or prepared by hand rather than by machine. Industrial manufacturing is a significant contributor to global warming and other pollution. The sale of handmade goods supports small-scale, independent artists and crafters who generally operate more sustainably than big businesses. Handmade items are skillfully crafted with detail, each one slightly varied.

Natural Material

Any material that comes from plants, animals, or minerals and is used without significant modification or processing. Natural materials include biotic materials, such as wood and natural fibers, and inorganic materials including stone, metal, and clay.
