What is organic cotton?
There are numerous benefits to growing organic cotton. The main benefit is that there are fewer chemicals in the environment. Research has proven that exposure to harsh chemicals like pesticides can cause mild problems such as headaches and nausea. Prolonged exposure can cause more serious illnesses like cancer or problems with our hormones, nervous system, reproductive system and immune system. Goods grown organically also retain more of their natural nutritional value (e.g., organic oranges have more vitamin c than conventionally grown oranges). Organic cotton is also a good choice for people with skin allergies or irritations because there are almost no chemicals involved with the growing of the plant or the production of the garment.
What is hemp?
Hemp is one of the oldest and strongest natural fibers. Its existence dates back as far as 2000 B.C. In the USA there is a strong history of hemp farming and use. Our first American flag was sewn with hemp fabric and many of the first wagons headed west were covered with hemp canvases. The hemp fiber is harvested from the large annual plant Cannabis Sativa. This industrial hemp has a negligible alkaloid content and therefore cannot be used to make “marijuana” or any other drug. There are myriad other uses for the hemp plant from paper to food products. Hemp is resistant to insects, making pesticides unnecessary for cultivation. In addition, hemp grows so vigorously that no fertilizers are needed. Thus hemp enables sustainability and prevents erosion on the farmed land. As if that were not enough, hemp produces at least three times more fiber per acre than cotton plants and produces the most per acre of any other fiber source. These and other attributes make hemp clothing an excellent eco-friendly choice. The breathable, porous nature of hemp allows trapped air to be warmed by the body, making these garments naturally warmer in colder weather. Yet its breathability also allows hemp fabrics to be very comfortable during hot summers. Hemp's UV light and mold resistance makes it a very durable fabric. Today, hemp is grown around the world. This plant is harvested throughout Europe, Russia, China and Canada. In the USA, each year brings us closer to the legalization of hemp farming. As our society comes to terms with the down-side of tobacco, farmers who grow tobacco want to have another option. Growing industrial hemp would provide a viable and profitable alternative for thousands of American farmers. We are excited about the years to come and the opportunity to make more eco-friendly apparel from this natural fiber and help save our farmlands.
Why should I buy soy candles?
Soy wax is a favorite of environmentally conscious people because it is not made from petroleum, like paraffin candles. Burning of soy candles does not increase the CO2 level in the atmosphere. Carcinogens are released into the air when a traditional candle is burning. Carcinogens can cause cancer, and other health related problems. New research is showing links between candles, charcoal, and other burning devices we use in our home lives as cancer causing. Research is just beginning on this issue; however it is a fact that soy candles do not produce carcinogens. Also, it's very difficult to remove paraffin wax from furniture or textiles. Soy wax spills can easily be clean up with hot soapy water.
