WONDERFULLY WILD STINGING NETTLE

It's not nice to play favorites, but if we had to choose one perennial alternative to annual spinach, the choice is easy ... it's Stinging Nettle!  Nettle is nature's multivitamin.  Its amazing golden root structure mines deep for vitamins and minerals and pulls them to the surface into its roots, leaves, and seeds.  It's one of the most nutrient-dense foods you can add to your diet.  This same makes abundance of nutrients also makes nettles an awesome homemade fertilizer.  And the best part is, not only is it extremely nutritious, but it's also DELICIOUS!  We enjoy the leaves in place of spinach in all our favorite recipes, in pestos, and sprinkle the tasty seeds on top of most of our dishes to enjoy their stress busting superpowers.  Every garden needs a nettle patch. Food, medicine, fertilizer, and garnish in one.  Can you tell we like it a little bit?  :) (Urtica dioica)  This is our wild-crafted stinging nettle that has maximum potency for medicine. It is our full-sting variety.
