Dolls & doll clothing-There are a number of fair trade produced baby dolls on the market today. Often created from organic fabrics like cotton or hemp, these dolls come in many shapes, sizes and ethnicities.

Fair trade and organic doll clothing can also be found as a wonderful compliment.

Organic Shirts-Organic cotton, hemp and bamboo clothing is readily accessible in many colors, styles and designs. Organic fabrics are very soft, wear incredibly well and can withstand hard use demanded by little girls! Organic shirts come in many colors and printed styles for something to suit any little girl's taste.
