Our babies are the light of our lives. They bring us joy, and we spend the rest of our lives trying to do the same for them and making sure they are safe and comfortable. We believe that comfort starts with the clothes we wear, which is why it is important to select clothes that won’t harm your baby’s delicate skin. And if you can do your bit for the economy and the environment by buying local? Well, that’s a win-win!
Not only is organic clothing safer for the environment, but it is also better for your baby’s skin because they are manufactured using no synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. A baby’s skin is very porous and can absorb chemicals much more easily than the skin of adults. So when you buy organic, you are making sure that only the safest fabrics touch your baby’s skin. Organic clothes - especially organic cotton - are super soft and breathable, so your baby will feel like they are wearing clouds instead of clothes.
We also went the extra mile for you and put together this amazing list of organic baby clothing brands that are committed to making your little one as safe as possible in a very sustainable way. All of them are manufactured locally in the USA. Buying local is more sustainable because it means the clothes don’t have to travel across oceans to reach you, resulting in a reduced carbon footprint. They are made right in your backyard.. so to speak. By buying local, you are also supporting your community and the US economy. Your babies will thank you in the future. So let's dive in without further ado.
Psst.. we saved the best for last! Trust us, you don’t want to miss this one.

Beya Made
Made In: Atlanta, Georgia
Fabrics: Linen
Beya Made is a truly sustainable baby clothing brand because their clothes are made to grow along with your baby! Sounds like magic, doesn’t it? Well, it is just a really good design. And maybe a little bit of magic. Their clothes can expand up to 3x their usual size, so you don’t have to keep buying new clothes as your baby grows. Their clothes are made to last, so you could even pass them on to your baby’s siblings and turn it into a family heirloom. One other amazing thing about this brand is that they use deadstock: i.e. they source their fabrics from other manufacturers who have milled more than they require, or are about to throw away rolls of fabric due to slight imperfections. Instead of letting that textile go to waste, Beya Made turns it into cute baby clothes that your babies can enjoy for years to come. They use linen that is naturally sustainable, soft, and can endure wear and tear. Your little ones can wear these gender-neutral clothes all year round.
We hope you enjoyed this trip to the land of baby clothes where whimsical designs and soft fabrics run free. Wrap your infants in these soft clothes, and watch their smiles blossom!
