Cordage and Tea

Students spent class today researching and utilizing Stinging Nettle, a plant well-known to native people for its nutritive properties, its medicinal uses and for producing the strongest plant-fiber cordage in the natural world.   Students sampled Nettle leaf tea, and discussed The Sacred Question.

Special thanks to Jessie and JJ (our newest TA) for their assistance as we learned cordage.
