Is this the most sustainable printed cotton T-shirt ever?

Is this the most sustainable printed cotton T-shirt ever?

It’s taken years of plotting and planting, but Cotton of Carolinas is finally reaping the fruits of its labor: T-shirts spun with North Carolina’s first-ever commercially grown certified-organic cotton. Founded in 2006 by Eric Henry, president of TS Designs , the group unites farmers and manufacturers dedicated to keeping the entire “dirt to shirt” supply chain within the confines of the Carolina states. To celebrate, TS Designs has created a limited-edition “Homegrown” tee, designed by Graphic Collective , from the inaugural harvest. Bonus: A portion of the proceeds will go to the Carolina Farm Stewardship Association , an organization that promotes sustainable farming in North Carolina.
