Singing Nettle also known as Utica Dioica, has been nourishing bodies and souls for centuries. In Canada, look for it in early spring typically March to May depending on your region when the plant is young and tender. Foraging responsibly and safely is key. Be sure to wear gloves to avoid those stings!

🌿 Stinging Nettle is often harvested in:

- River beds
- Damp areas
- Woodland edges
- Meadows
- Along streams and creeks
- Moist, nitrogen-rich soils

It is great for supporting immune resilience, seasonal allergies, soothing skin and calming the nervous system and great for helping to control the bodies inflammatory response. This plant has such a diverse mineral rich profile because of what it absorbs from the earth.

Some of the key minerals found in nettle include:

Calcium: Supports bone health and muscle function
Iron: Essential for healthy red blood cells
Magnesium: Important for muscle relaxation, nerve function, and heart health
Potassium: Helps regulate blood pressure and support overall cardiovascular health
Silica: Supports skin, hair, and bone health
Zinc: Boosts immune function and wound healing
Manganese: Plays a role in bone health and antioxidant function
Phosphorus: Supports bone health and energy production
Selenium: Antioxidant properties, supports immune function

Nettle is also rich in vitamins A, C, D, and K, and is a good source of protein and fiber. 🌿
