Green/ Organic products/ magazines

In the Uk I subscribe to two magazines 'Organic life' and 'Green parent' both of which I liek if only because they remind me about what 'earth friendly' stuff there is out there and where to get it if not in your local supermarket.
Doea anything similar exist in Switzerland? Are there specific bio shops - I am moving to Zug?
An example is; I need new towels and want to buy organic cotton ones - where do I get them from?
thanks

Re: Green/ Organic products/ magazines

Shops that sell only organic products are called "Reformhaus". There are many independent ones, but also a few chains. For example "Reformhaus Müller": http://www.reformhaus.ch/verkaufsstellen/index.php

But also the supermarkets sell organic products. Check the following link. It's a good rating of the most common bio-labels in switzerland, provided by the WWF: http://assets.wwf.ch/downloads/foodlabel_wwf_presse.pdf

Also Claro Fair Trade AG! They are scattered throughout Switzerland. The links section in their site also provides good Bio sources.
