going green : kate quinn organics.

Pi_JumpsuitLSLLE6 i was introduced to kate quinn organics by my friend susan back when i was still pregnant with the girl.  i purchased a few things in a bigger sizes and unisex colors and then we had to wait to give them a test drive.

this was one of the purchases, a long sleeve kimono jumpsuit.  let's be honest.  the girl is tall.  really tall.  and this jumpsuit fits her so well and she still could grow a bit more and it would be long enough.  this is in fact the only one piece item of clothing that she can wear without getting something in a bigger size.  love it.  it's perfect for lazy days at home as it's super comfortable for her to play in.  i also love what this company stands for as well.  even if it means items are a little pricier.  they wash wonderfully and are pieces that you can actually save for another child to wear.  unlike a lot of clothes out there that once washed several time, look less than fabulous.

i also love what this company stands for :

– a cleaner, kinder earth –

At Kate Quinn Organics, we pride ourselves on our commitment to fair trade and the earth. We use only certified organic cotton, grown using sustainable farming practices that maintain and replenish soil fertility without the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers. 

whenever they have a sale, i'm always poking around on their site looking around.  in fact, on earth day, i managed to pick up another jumpsuit, this time in velour, and a cute shirt/skirt combo for c.  not only did i get both outfits for about half of their usual price, they arrived just a few days after placing the order.  and tucked inside my order was a tree.  a blue spruce seedling to be exact.  with a message from them on it being how it would be a great activity to explain the importance of doing green activities such as planting trees, with your children.  love it.  love them. 

and now we have said blue spruce planted in a pot on our deck.  working to clean our air, even though it is not yet full size.  but we all have to start somewhere.  similar to the girl not paying much attention to my green activities now.  but hopefully she will in the years to come.
