Organic Nettle Leaf – Wildcrafted & Dried | Urtica dioica | Restorative Herbal Tea for Strength, Vitality & Skin Support

Resilient, nourishing, and quietly powerful—this organic nettle leaf is a back-field staple for teas, wellness blends, and traditional poultices.

Herbal Overview

Often overlooked, yet always essential, Nettle Leaf (Urtica dioica) is one of those herbs that quietly supports the body without needing the spotlight. It grows wild in the back corners of our farm, thriving where few others do—unbothered, untamed, and ready to give when called upon.

With its jagged leaves and gentle sting, nettle is often avoided at first glance. But those who know it understand: this is a deeply restorative plant, rich in iron, calcium, magnesium, and Vitamin C. Long used to ease fatigue, nourish the blood, and support skin health, nettle tea is a trusted tonic for shifting seasons and weary bodies.

Our organic or wildcrafted nettle leaf is harvested at peak vitality, carefully dried, and cut for ease of brewing. It carries the rich, green scent of spring growth, offering quiet strength in every cup.

Packaging Details

Your herbs will arrive wrapped in our General Store Parcel Wrap, a food-safe inner pouch sealed inside kraft paper, fastened with a brass pin, and tied with twine.

This simple, rustic wrapping is inspired by the old apothecary counters and feed stores that once lined every village main street. We suggest transferring to a glass jar after opening.

Stillroom Notes

Nettle grows in the wildest corners of LizzyLane Farm, where it’s been quietly thriving for generations. My grandmother always told me not to ignore the nettles—that they give more than they take. She was right. I sip it often in early spring and late fall, when the body needs a little help adjusting to what’s next. It’s the plant that works hard behind the scenes—and earns its place in every herbalist’s cabinet.
