In the late 1950s-only ten years after their

There is a more natural way to grow cotton. In recent years, many

Today, cotton is being grown organically in 18 countries. At Coyuchi,
we understand the world can't be changed overnight. But, we also know
that changing the way we grow this one crop-cotton-could make a big
difference, reducing the world's use of insecticides by 25 percent.
