Stinging Nettle

Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) is a perennial wild edible naturalised across Kenya's cool highland regions (1,500–3,000 m asl). Despite its sting, the young leaves — once blanched or dried — are extraordinarily nutritious, rivalling spinach in iron, calcium, and chlorophyll content. Used in herbal teas, soups, dried leaf powder, and nutritional supplements. Certified Organic. Available fresh (1 KG bulk) or as dry prepacks (10×100 g).
