I’ve recently had my first baby, so this month I am going to focus on all things baby-related! Everyone wants a healthy, happy baby. A calm relaxed parent is one important key to having a happy baby and I’ve found that by informing myself on all kinds of approaches to parenting I’ve been able to make my own way. When it comes to baby health, naturally I’m a fan of using natural products. By reducing the chemicals and additives that your baby is exposed to in your home, on your baby’s skin, in their food, and in your food you are giving your baby a great start to life.

Organico Baby Club

As well as being amazing, having a new baby in the house can be confusing, expensive and traumatic! I have decided to launch a Baby Club at Organico to try to help reduce the confusion and cost of new parenthood. The Organico Baby Club will give members access to useful information, new parent get-togethers, and lots of discounts on nappies, food, formula, wipes and other essentials at Organico. Membership is free, just call in and sign up. The Baby Club Goodie bag contains a great article on healthy weaning by Jessica Mason (Jess works in Organico kitchen and is a fantastic cook!).

For this year’s Fairtrade Fortnight we want hundreds of thousands of people in Ireland to join us in the BIG SWAP! Get involved by swapping your usual stuff for Fairtrade stuff. Each swap will be proof that people in Ireland want a better deal for producers in developing countries.

Fair Trade Draw
In Bantry the Fairtrade committee is running a Monthly Draw throughout 2010 to encourage the Big Swap. Participating shops will retain your reciepts for fair trade products and they will be entered in the draw. The COmmittee will award €100 to the lucky winner.

In Organico we stock a large range of FairTrade food, including teas, coffees, honeys, chocolate, biscuits, as well as cleaning clothes, wines and more. Call in to check out our display of Fair Trade products during FairTrade fortnight, and try our Fairtrade tasters all week long!

LET THE BIG SWAP BEGIN
22 February-8 March 2010

Organico is expanding further into the natural baby market. Unsurprising, given my recent arrival! We already stock Nanny formula, Nature Care nappies, Hipp organic formula, Ella’s Kitchen organic (delicious) pouches, Holle dried baby food and a selection of Hipp baby finger foods as well as miscellaneous items. Soon though we will have Little Comfort Cloth nappies and a range of bulk buy offers that will be extended to our Baby Club members. I’m thinking at the moment of giving 10% off if someone buys 4 packs of nappies, 4 packs of wipes, that kind of thing. Hopefully, we will eventually roll these offers out online also!

Keep checking here for updates!
