Much ado is made about eco-labels, but what do they mean, and are they worth it?

If you’re a fellow gardener, you know it's considered common sense to add good stuff, like nutrients, to your garden and keep out bad stuff, like toxic chemicals. After all, what’s growing in your garden will ultimately be on your plate.

When we think of fabric, we most likely imagine mills over farms. However, regardless of whether a fabric is made from organic flax fibers or sustainable wood cellulose, a farm of some sort is at the start and the heart of the process. The care with which a fiber is farmed is reflected in the quality of the finished fabric. Eco-certified fibers produce some of the highest-quality fabrics on earth.

Ecovera, Oeko-Tex, and, of course, Organic are some of the best-known labels, and we’re happy to have a selection in stock in our ECO COUTURE COLLECTION. We love them because they mean that fabrics are produced using processes that are better for both people and the planet. While no certification system is perfect, buying eco-certified fabrics helps move the $1.7 trillion fashion industry in the right direction.

This weekend, I invite you to enjoy 25% off our ECO COUTURE COLLECTION, featuring fabrics certified by one or more top eco-labels. Enter code ECOCOUTURE to see your instant savings automatically applied all weekend.
