Stinging Nettle - Urtica dioica
Stinging nettle is a wild edible and medicinal plant that a lot of people are very interested to forage for and use. Personally I'm pretty stoked about this plant! Stinging nettle is a wild edible plant that is very nutritious and it is also a wild medicinal plant that is used to treat a lot of ailments. This video covers identification of stinging nettle, edible uses, medicinal uses, harvesting, and I even discuss transplanting and growing stinging nettle in my garden.
