Stinging nettle
📍 W8583 Finch Brothers Rd, Lake Mills, WI 53551, USA
🗓 Season: March · April · May
🔍 When is it ripe?
Harvest only the top 4–6 young leaves in spring before flowering. Use gloves — sting disappears completely on cooking. Blanch, steam, or make into soup. Do not eat once plant flowers (gets gritty). Highly nutritious — rich in iron and vitamins.
Large patches among the elderberries. Best in springtime, but can be harvested throughout summer for new growth and seeds.
