August 12, 2014

Is America heading toward a hyperinflationary currency collapse?  If so what can you do about it? 


 


Nettles are one of the most misunderstood plants in the wild- and highly undervalued in the garden.


Nettles are a highly nutritious food, a valuable medicine, and a versatile source of textiles and raw materials.


We discuss the ways to use nettles in your cooking, the traditional medicinal uses of nettles, and the many and valuable raw materials to which the nettle  lends itself.


We share how best to grow and harvest this plant, and it's potential as a cash crop.


Nettles deserve a place in your food plan as well as in your self-sufficiency strategy.
