Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica) – Homegrown Dried Herb | 2 oz

Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica) has been valued for centuries as both a nourishing food and a traditional botanical. Grown on our chemical-free Southern Indiana farm, our stinging nettle is harvested by hand while the leaves are young and tender, then gently dried in small batches to preserve their rich green color, natural aroma, and botanical character.

Although fresh nettles are known for the tiny stinging hairs that protect the plant, these hairs lose their sting once the leaves are dried or cooked. For generations, stinging nettle has been enjoyed as a wholesome herbal tea, incorporated into traditional herbal preparations, and used as a nutritious culinary green.

Traditional Uses

Stinging Nettle has a long history of use throughout Europe and North America, where it has been appreciated as one of the most nutrient-rich herbs in traditional herbalism. Herbalists have long prepared the leaves as teas, tinctures, soups, and nourishing infusions intended to promote overall wellness and vitality.

Traditionally, stinging nettle has been used to support normal urinary tract function, healthy joint mobility, and seasonal wellness. It has also been valued as a mineral-rich botanical, naturally containing vitamins, minerals, and other plant nutrients that have made it a favorite herb for daily nourishment.

Beyond its traditional internal uses, stinging nettle has also been incorporated into hair rinses and other botanical preparations as part of traditional personal care practices. Today, it remains one of the most respected herbs among herbalists and foragers alike.

These traditional uses are based on historical herbal practices and are provided for educational purposes.
