Spring time herbs Nettles spotlight! πŸŒ±πŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸ³πŸ’₯ One of my favorite herbs of all time is Stinging Nettles! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve accidentally stung myself (lol) but when handled properly, it is such a great spring time herb to keep on deck. You can certainly wild harvest it, but it is commonly found fresh at the farmer’s market around this time and makes a great addition to many recipes. πŸ’—


Once you cook it, the spikiness will go away. You can also drink straight as a tea and has magical anti inflammatory benefits. I like it especially this time of year to keep the seasonal allergies at bay. Aside from its amazing treatment of all kinds of inflammation and pain issues, Nettles have been studied and found to be beneficial in treating enlarged prostate issues, hay fever, and blood sugar control. 😎
