Hemp creates one of the most eco-friendly fabrics in the world and is hypo-allergenic and non-irritating to the skin. It provides all the warmth and softness of a natural textile and is an exceptionally durable and strong fabric. Hemp requires no pesticides, crowds out weeds without herbicides, controls erosion of the topsoil, and produces oxygen. It is also a very fast growing crop, producing high fiber yield per acre making it a very sustainable choice!
These are perfect for:
...all while reducing waste and avoiding nasty chemicals and preservatives found in many commercial disposable wipes.
And if they get left in a pocket and thrown in the wash, they will just get clean: no more picking tiny pieces of shredded paper off of everything in the dryer!
Get ready for so many more one-wipe diaper changes! Cloth wipes clean so much more efficiently, you'll be impressed. These wipes can be used as baby wipes at the change table or in the diaper bag. Simply wet with water or use our Cheeky Bits cloth wipe solution.
Made from 55% hemp and 45% organic cotton, size is 8"x8". Fits nicely in a wipes tub or warmer.
Care: Wash cold or warm with like colours using your detergent of choice. Tumble dry low. Wipes may shed some lint until they've been washed a few times. This is normal! These wipes will hold up to all the rinsing and hot washes you put your cloth diapers through. Wipes are not pre-washed, so expect some shrinkage.
*Do not use fabric softener or dryer sheets as these will decrease absorbency of fabric!

Welcome to Shades of Green, I’m so glad you’re here!
When I opened the store in 2009 there wasn’t many options for sustainable, earth friendly products in our community. It was a bit hard at first to source these kinds of products but now with so many people getting on board with the Zero waste movement there’s so much more available. We love to support Local and Canadian Made products as much as possible but when we do source products made outside of North America we make sure they are Made responsibly in Fair Trade practices.
Thank you for visiting the shop and wherever you are on your earth loving journey we are here to help. Small changes everyday can make a big impact.
