If you cant wait till Sunday for all your Nettle needs you can tune into my Permaculture show on D'Ark city radio this evening......i am gonna run through a few Nettle basics, its constituents, nutrient content,uses and herbal actions to show why it is such a valuable resource but then i am going to move on to firstly the more general topic of soil remediation/bio-remediation moving to how the Nettle may play a part in this.
I will also be joined by some Nettlefest participants to chat about the wonder of Nettles and the creation of local events by the people for the people.
