When searching around the internet, I came across the company, Fair Indigo. They are a new company that is striving to create quality goods while paying a fair and meaningful wage to the people that produce them. This concept is known as “Fair Trade” and it means that Fair Indigo only uses the most ethical factories around the globe and they pay their workers a fair wage. I don’t know about you but I do always think about who or what actually made the items I purchase. It is comforting to know that a company is actually taking its own initiative to be fair with its workers while still creating high quality goods at reasonable prices.
While Fair Indigo is primarily a clothing business, they also carry these adorable plush animals called “Joobles.” They are soft knit stuffed characters perfect for any child! Joobles were created by a Peruvian family and are still handcrafted there in Peru where their tagline is “Responsible, Sustainable, Adorable.” I was lucky enough to receive Jiffy the Giraffe to check out and it is a hit with both my kids and I.
About Joobles:
- Made with Eco-friendly dyes and 100% organic cotton grown in Peru. Also, the cotton was grown without the use of pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fertilizers, or other toxic chemicals. So no harsh chemicals for your child or the workers that produced it.
- They are relatively big at 11 inches tall.
- Super soft and cuddly. Perfect for both boys and girls.
- Most of the Joobles also have adorable matching outfit sets to go with them!
Both of my sons loved Jiffy and I am so happy that I didn’t have to worry about Gavin trying to eat it! He also loved to swish it around the floor and he used it as a pillow! So whether you are looking for sustainable and Eco-friendly fashions for your self or family or adorable gift for children, Fair Indigo really does offer it all. I am in love with their Organic Cotton Scoopneck Sundress and the Faux Wrap Top for myself. They also have a Facebook page and email newsletter you can receive.
