Join us for a unique class with Latfia from ALCLA Native Plants 
.

We are thrilled to share the many gifts of plants, especially Nettle- from fibre to food and medicine.
.


In this two part class you’ll get a easy start on how to create cordage and raw fibres from Nettle and other plants. An intro to yarn, thread and fabric (and yes, even the process behind the trendy nettle dress)
.

Plus explore how to grow Nettle and get to know its medicinal and edible properties.

.

Together we’ll enjoy a tea and tincture tasting exercise, plenty of demonstrations and a chance to try out some techniques yourself. And each participant will take home a packet of Nettle seeds!
.


Grow your own clothing, food, and medicine—while also supporting pollinators and butterflies.
