Are you an Etsy fan with a passion eco-living? Want the latest on organic sellers? Check out Etsy Organic, a team that brings together the organic sellers and promotes organic, sustainable living.

Just a few of the organic products available include: organic cotton t-shirts, facial cleansers, body scrubs, botanical perfumes, organic cotton baby hats and blankets, cloth diaper covers, purses and totes, and so many more covetable items.

To belong to the team, at least 25 percent of a seller's product must be organic and they have to commit to increasing their range of organic products (the hope is each seller will reach at least 50 percent organic goods). Organic items must be certified organic or must be made only with certified organic ingredients or materials.

Only the organic products sold by Etsy Organic sellers can be tagged with the EtsyOrganicTeam tag, so buyers will know that they are getting the organic goods.

The team also has a Twitter account, @EtsyOrganic, so you can follow them and get oh-so-addictive updates on new organic products.

There are currently 39 sellers set up with the team, but more are always welcome. For details on joining, check out the Etsy Organic Team webpage or contact Greenworks for more information.

Cara Smusiak writes on behalf of Naturally Savvy.com about how to live a more natural, organic and green lifestyle.
