Organics to wear!

Our new range of organic clothing and towels offers a variety of sizes, styles and fabulous colours in certified organic, fair-traded cotton.

Our supplier,  Bo Weevil, is committed to fair trade policies.  These include guaranteed buying to enable farmers to plan further into the future, a fair price (usually 15-30% higher than normal prices), and the avoidance of child labour.

We have been wearing Bo-Weevil T-shirts printed with the Goosemoor logo for the last couple of months and are impressed with the quality.

Negative environmental effects of the cotton industry

The cultivation of conventionally-grown cotton uses intensive applications of pogrown annually.  Although this represents only about 3% of all cultivated land, cotton accounts for an estimated 18% of all agricultural chemicals used.  Before being made into garments, cotton is usually treated with a long list of chemicals.  Descriptions such as hand-picked, green, eco and unbleached are often misleading and give no guarantee of environmentally-sound production.

What is available?  

Drivers have samples of clothing in their vans and will delighted to show them to you.  Lines available and prices are shown on our Order Form here.  

The Goosemoor T-shirt, with our logo printed on the front and back, is offered at a special price.

Currently as we are building up the range, delivery to you is within two weeks

More information on the products and production is available on the Bo-Weevil website.  If you see something that you would like to buy but that we have not included on the list overleaf, please contact us for price and availability
