Nettle - a good friend

Who hasn't heard of the nettle? The delicate burn left by the slightest caress of its leaves has made it an unloved plant. This wild plant, perhaps the most useful to man, is simply labeled a "weed", invasive, to be destroyed.

Here, Moutsie introduces you to its many qualities for everyday use. It's also for garden lovers. Not only is the nettle an excellent vegetable with high nutritional value, and a medicinal plant for many pathologies, it is also an indispensable companion that respects wildlife, avoids pollution from dangerous weedkillers and pesticides, and restores the environment by forming humus. It contributes to the balance of human beings and the planet. It's high time we rediscovered it.
