The Nourishing Nettle Conference
May 4-12, 2026
Looking for a tasty, high-protein, polyphenol-rich, longevity-promoting, stress-busting, brain-boosting, wrinkle-removing adaptogen? Stinging nettle is all that, and so much more.
An effective medicine, a functional food, a superior fiber, an earth healer, sister spinster stinging nettle does it all. There's no better way to begin or deepen your relationship with nourishing nettle than attending the Nourishing Nettle Virtual Conference.
Twenty herbalists share with you their personal experiences with nettle — the magic, the lore, the science, the clinical uses, their recipes, and recommendations - in recorded presentations and live, interactive zoom sessions. One full week of nourishing nettle at one low price.
