Every September, the UK celebrates Organic September, a month-long campaign led by the Soil Association to raise awareness of the benefits of organic living.
It’s a national reminder to pause and ask: where do the things we buy really come from?
From the food on our plates to the fabric on our backs, Organic September shines a spotlight on how choosing organic can nurture our health, protect wildlife, and reduce our environmental footprint.
Why It’s Close to Our Hearts at KIDDYKIND
As parents, we know how quickly our little ones grow, and how many choices we make on their behalf.
At KIDDYKIND, our mission has always been simple: to make those choices a little kinder; for our children and for the planet.
That’s why so many of the independent brands on our marketplace meet certified organic standards, whether it’s organic cotton for kid's clothing or natural, certified-organic ingredients in skincare and baby products.
Organic September feels like a month-long celebration of everything we stand for.
The Benefits of Going Organic
1. Gentler on Delicate Skin
Baby and children’s skin is thinner and more absorbent than adult skin.
- Organic cotton is grown without toxic pesticides or harsh chemical finishes, which means fewer potential irritants against your child’s skin.
- Organic skincare and cosmetics use plant-based ingredients grown without synthetic fertilisers, so you avoid unnecessary chemical residues in lotions, balms, and bath products.
2. Better for the Planet
Organic farming practices:
- Promote healthier soils and cleaner waterways.
- Protect pollinators and wildlife by avoiding synthetic pesticides.
- Use methods that store more carbon, helping combat climate change.
3. Protects the People Behind the Products
Farm workers and communities benefit when fewer chemicals are sprayed and when supply chains prioritise fair, transparent standards.
How to Celebrate Organic September with Your Family

Swap to Organic Cotton Basics
Start small—think pyjamas, baby grows, or that favourite blanket. -
Choose Certified Skincare
Look for Soil Association COSMOS or similar certification on lotions and bath products. -
Eat One More Organic Meal a Week
Organic isn’t only for clothing. Try organic fruit, veg, or dairy for a simple, family-friendly change. -
