Diaper Round-Up

There's a pretty good article in today's Star-Tribune discussing cloth diapers and the increasing use of cloth diapers instead of disposables. Check out the full article here.

Some local resources for cloth diapers:

• Do Good Diapers the only local diaper delivery service
• Sweet Pickles
• Peapod
• Twin Cities Green
• Linden Hills Natural Home

Not certain you're ready to take the plunge? Teeny Greenies offers a loan program to 'test drive' different styles of cloth diapers.

Still not quite ready for cloth? You can still make a greener choice by using gdiapers (biodegradable inside with washable cover) or Seventh Generation diapers (less chemicals utilized in the manufacture), both available at Whole Foods and various other retail outlets.

Intimidated? Check out one of these upcoming Cloth Diaper Classes!
