Eco-Friendly Diapers
From hybrid cars to burlap grocery bags, "going green" seems to be a growing trend, and babies can do their part to protect the planet too.

Some may raise an eyebrow at using cloth diapers, but the old rag and clothes pin method of yesterday is done.

The C-E-O of Tallahassee-based company Ecological Babies says companies are making cloth diapers more stylish and cost- friendly for families who are looking for a green alternative to disposable diapers.

"Even over the last six months new diapers are coming out and because it's becoming more mainstream, they are making them a lot easier to use and more affordable and in different materials," says owner Jen Starks.

Starks also says the technological advances in washers and dryers make cloth diaper clean-up less messy and virtually hassle-free.

Ecological Babies will host a cloth diaper workshop tonight at the Best Beginnings Boutique on Timberlane Road from 6:30 to 7:30.
