Mums are more conscious than ever of the products they buy being environmentally friendly.
With more choices being offered every day in the supermarkets, we no longer need to search high and low for organic products that were in the past nearly impossible to find. When doing some research on sanitary products that fitted the bill, I was truly astounded at the offerings available now that are organic, environmentally friendly and reusable options, that were often unavailable in days gone by.
Here are some of the organic and reusuable products available in Australia (and able to be purchased world-wide!).
