Mattresses
ORGANIC COTTON/PURE GROW WOOL & NATURAL LATEX MATTRESSES
Buying an organic bed is a long-term investment in your health as well as the well-being of our planet. Standard mattresses are constructed of petroleum based foams and then soaked in an average of one and a half pounds of toxic chemicals. Many of these are known carcinogens and even have been banned in Europe. When we sleep, these chemicals give off gas and we breathe them in. The damage to our bodies can be huge. They can affect our central nervous system, our internal organs, our brain function and more. If you are pregnant, these poisons will cross the placenta and go into your breastmilk. They have also been found in newborn babies' cord blood.
Our beds are made from Organic Cotton with Pure Grow Wool or Natural Latex tapped from rubber tree plants. Wool is a natural flame retardent, as well as antibacterial. It also regulates your body temperature - keeping you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Latex is naturally mold, mildew and dustmite resistant. These mattresses are comfortable as well as a healthier choice for you and your family. We have many different styles to choose from, and our prices are the best anywhere, guaranteed!

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT MATTRESS
Many websites have lots of technical information on which mattress is right for you. I will share what I have learned watching people come into our store trying out the different styles.

If you like a very firm mattress you may consider our
ORGANIC COTTON/PURE GROW WOOL INNERSPRING
This mattress, by Vivetique, is the basic conventional-type innerspring mattress, but without the toxic foam and chemicals. It is the firmest mattress we sell. It is the best choice for the budget minded, or those who want a latex free option. It is meant to be used with a boxspring, for the longest life and best performance. The boxspring also allows the bed to breathe.
PureRest has just created a version of this mattress, The Apollo Organic Innerspring Mattress, that does not require a boxspring, but rather is warranteed for use on a slat frame bed or wood foundation.
Another great choice for those who like a firmer mattress is a standard 6" latex mattress. Our best seller is the middle firmness (Firm 31ILD) because it appeals to a wide variety of people. It is firm and supportive and yet yields to your pressure points. Choose extra firm (35ILD) if you really like it very firm. These mattresses are made of pure natural Dunlop latex, tapped from rubber
tree plants. It is naturally mold, mildew and dustmite resistant. Don't
be fooled by other makers claiming to sell natural latex that actually
has been blended with synthetics. Most people with latex sensitivities
are actually reacting to the synthetic additives. (We can send you a sample if you are concerned latex may not be for you.) This mattress is our
best seller. It is perfect for those with allergies, pressure point
problems, or sensitivities to metal innersprings. People who like a
firm mattress, but one that gently gives and cradles the body love this
mattress. Transfer of motion (when the person next to you moves around)
is very limited and moms who have this mattress tell me it is perfect
for sneaking away from sleeping baby. Latex does not compress like cotton and wool do, so this mattress will stay super comfy for a long, long time. If you need more softness, a topper can always be added later. Personally, I LOVE the feel of a natural latex mattress!
NATURAL LATEX MATTRESS by Vivetique
For those who like a bit of a softer mattress:
If you are looking for additional softness, or to mimic the feel of a "memory foam" mattress (which has been found, according to a german study, to be the most toxic mattress made), check out the Dream Lite Latex Mattress, the All Natural Pedic, or The Sagittarius Mattresses. These are layered mattresses which have several inches of soft latex on top of a firm base layer. Latex mattresses do not need a boxspring - they need firmer support. You can buy a wood foundation (looks like a boxspring but all wood inside) or use a slat frame or platform bed.
COMBO INNERSPRING/LATEX MATTRESS
Mattresses such as the top-of-the-line Aurora or it's budget minded partner, the Paradise, are innerspring mattresses that have a 2 inch layer of latex surrounding the springs. With this you get the bounce of an innerspring, with the comfort of latex. You will not feel the innersprings through the latex. This, to me, is a cushier, softer bed, that is more reminiscent of traditional mattresses. The latex gives you that mold, mildew and dustmite resistance. These mattresses can be used with a corresponding boxspring, or a wood foundation, or my favorite, a slat frame.
All of our organic mattresses meets all state and federal fire codes, including the new 2007 nationwide mattress fire code. No fire retardant chemicals or any other chemicals are used in any of our organic mattresses.

an organic cotton mattress pad that can be washed regularly for leaks,
spills, sweating, etc.) As your child grows you have the option to add a 2" latex mattress topper to use this mattress into adulthood.
