When many of us think of Stinging Nettle we see the plant that hurts when we touch it. But did you know it is a plant that you can eat? Join Rachel Bishop, Community Programs Manager at Wenatchee River Institute, and nettle forager, for a class on wild harvesting and eating Stinging Nettle. You will learn how to identify Stinging Nettle, the habitat you may find it growing, tips for harvesting, and uses. The icing on the top – each person will go home with a little nettle pesto! Nettle has been used as food, drink, and medicinally for a very long time. It contains many different nutrients, like vitamins A & C, amino acids, and minerals. If you are interested in wild foraging, this is the class for you!
