Going to bed every night swathed in sheets made from
cotton that was grown with heavy pesticide spraying is not exactly a calming, sleep-inducing thought. On conventional bedding, however, you're very likely to be ensconced in the stuff from your duvet cover right down to your mattress pad. Fortunately there are now lots of options for
organic cotton bedding (for each component of your bed). The
thread counts are just as high and you'll still get to choose from a range of colors, plus even if you pay a little bit more than you would for conventional cotton bedding, chances are you'll love your
organic cotton bedding so much you won't be replacing it any time soon. Organic cotton isn't the only choice, though, you can also try
sustainable bamboo bedding (which is antibacterial and oh-so-soft) or
organic wool bedding.
