Organic Lonica Lee: Sweaters for TREES!

Sweaters for TREES!

We took the little girls (Alexis & Sofia) to Iowa City today and saw that many of the trees downtown were covered in sweaters! They were hand-knitted and very colorful, the girls thought it was fun to see. It made me think about all the beautiful organic sweaters we just received from a fair trade knitter Indigenous Designs.

Where to find it all...

Here's a link to my natural living website www.theorganiccompany.com
I've offered organic fiber clothing, bedding and other earth friendly products to my loyal customers since the spring of 1995 when I first became involved with the organic fiber market.

I organized an eco-fashion show/fund raiser for a local college environmental group and caused so much excitement that I borrowed money on my used Toyota to open a store. From a humble booth of some thirty organic cotton items, my retail store was born, and within a year of the grand opening we doubled the floor space, and received an award for Business Improvement from the local Chamber of Commerce.

Over the last fifteen years, my company has grown into one of the largest, most complete selections of organic fiber goods in the country, we have created our own line of organic bedding, locally produced exclusively for our worldwide customers. The Organic Company also offers organic bodycare products and organic makeup, sustainable housewares, eco-furniture, natural toys, and earth friendly gifts.

As a parent of four young children, I love to help people to raise organic kids, from explaining the easiest way to use organic cloth diapers to choosing an affordable, long lasting organic bed for the whole family. I have helped countless parents find precisely what they need for their babies and kids, and love to find just the right fit for each child.
