Stinging Nettle

My favourite time of year...the earth warms and stinging nettle makes its first appearance.  Most people are unaware of the medicinal properties of stinging nettle tea. Its value as a blood cleanser is unsurpassed.  Even a compost heap would sing its praises if it could, providing a superior source of nitrogen.  Be grateful for stinging nettle when it shows up in your land as it is a sure sign of excellent soil conditions.
