National Nettle Week

It’s Be Nice To Nettles Week from 13-24 May, 2009 with the intention being to remind you that the nettle is not just the weed with a strong sting!

Now, you’ll probably not encounter any nettles in your patio containers and tubs but you may well find them in your garden. You’ll certainly stumble upon nettles in urban park areas and out in the countryside. The intention of the Be Nice To Nettles campaign is to educate you on the important natural role that nettles play. Click here and find out why there’s much more to the nettle than the sting.
