Opting for linen means less need for pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides compared to regular cotton. Even better - organic linen is grown without any of those nasties. Linen improves the health of the soil it's grown in, and hardly any of the plant goes to waste. Linen is the real deal - tough, absorbent, and a quick-drying champ. It's naturally hypoallergenic and even bugs hate it!
