About Sheets

Bright, white cotton sheets feel natural, but conventional cotton production uses 24% of the world's chemical pesticides and fertilizers yet occupies only 3% of the world's farmland. Much of the bedding available from major retailers is made from polyester, and permanent-press sheets are treated with formaldehyde. Green Home recommends using bedding made from organic cotton, 100% chemically untreated cotton, or hemp. Read articles about natural bed sheets and how to care for your sheets.
