Join Railyard Apothecary for our twice monthly “materia medica” classes where we share in-depth information on one of our favorite plants. These classes are meant to provide a thorough description of a plant, its history, its uses, and how to prepare it safely.
Nettles are a superfood! They're loaded in protein, iron, minerals, vitamin C and beta-carotene. All parts are useful: the leaves are delicate and easy to cook with; the seeds, a valuable adrenal restorative; the root, one of our best urinary and prostate remedies; and the stem, second only to hemp for rope and fiber. Learn about ways to harvest and prepare nettles, and how to unlock their medicinal benefit for everything from allergies to anemia.
Class taught by Guido Masé.
