#nettles

Saturday April 18th. Garden journal notes. The perennial nettle plant is wonderful. This harvest aspired to be steamed with sambal kelapa spiced carrots. This is an early green for southern Minnesota. Also the plant spreads aggressively by shallow runners and deep runners. Also the common name is stinging nettles. #nettles, #growyourown, #nodig, #compost, #minnesota, #Zone4b, #gardening

@Broadfork@mastodon.green, @LifeTimeCooking@mastodon.au The Garden Amendment book is a great reference book. It’s on the kitchen table today. #gardenamendments, #fermentation, #soilbiology, #nettles, #comfrey, #dandelion, #minnesota, #Zone4b
