Bamboosa with Giveaway **Closed**



I love Bamboo. Bamboosa carries bamboo clothing, towels, sheets, and more! Here's a little bit about Bamboo.

Bamboo, a renewable resource, is the fastest growing plant in the world - growing as fast as 47.6 inches in a 24-hour period. Bamboo can be selectively harvested every year after 7 years, compared to 30 to 50 years for trees, and bamboo regenerates without replanting. With a 10-30% annual increase in biomass versus 2-5% for trees, bamboo can yield 20 times more timber than trees on the same area.Bamboos include over 1,000 species of woody, perennial grasses in more than 100 genera all over the planet that are native to every continent except Europe and the poles. China has an abundant resource of bamboo - over 400 species.

For 3000 years, the Chinese have been making bamboo products. Bamboo tolerates extremes of drought and drowning, generates 30% more oxygen than trees and is considered a critical element in the balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Because of its wide spread root system and large canopy, bamboo greatly reduces rain run off and prevents massive soil erosion. Bamboo helps mitigate water pollution due to its high nitrogen consumption, making it a solution for excess nutrient uptake of waste water from manufacturing, livestock farming and sewage treatment.

Bamboo is one of the strongest building materials on earth. Because of its great tensile strength, its capacity for splitting straight, its hardness, its peculiar cross-section, and the ease with which it can be grown - a combination of useful traits found together in no other plant - bamboo is one of those providential developments in nature which, like the horse, the cow, wheat and cotton, have been indirectly responsible for man's own evolution.



If you have never felt bamboo clothing or sheets you really need to check it out. Not only is it super soft and cozy its great for our environment!

Bamboosa carries many bamboo products not just for baby either. They have mens and womens clothing as well as soaps, socks, and accessories. I love their bamboo baby line. They have some clothing, washcloths, hooded towels, crib sheets, blankets and more! I got to try, or rather Brandon did, the bamboo crib sheet in sage green. I love it. I could not wait to put it in his crib. The color is gorgeous and it is so soft. I had to take it around and let everyone feel just how soft it was.


I love knowing that Brandon is sleeping on something organic that is so soft and good for the environment. This sheet is very generous in its size, it fits the mattress snugly but it actually covers the corners, which seems to be very uncommon with crib sheets these days. This is by far my favorite crib sheet.
