Sold Out

Purple dead nettle is a small, fast-growing annual in the mint family, recognized by its soft, fuzzy leaves and purplish tops that appear in early spring. Despite its name, it is unrelated to stinging nettle and does not sting, and it carries unique characteristics and benefits. Often one of the first green plants to emerge after winter, purple dead nettle has been noted in Culinary, Medicinal, Metaphysical / Spiritual, Cosmetic, and Herbal Tea traditions, and is also valued as an early-season pollinator plant.

Order Details, Pickup and Shipping:

Our dried herbs and flowers are mostly sold by weight.  Order by the half-oz or oz, or in 4-oz or 1-lb increments for bulk savings.  Weight varies by herb.  I am happy to send you a quick photo — for example — of what an ounce of this particular product looks like.

Inventory varies throughout the year and is impossible to keep current on the website.  Even if the item is marked “sold out”, it might actually be available now.  I recommend you put your desired order together and then verify availability with us before checking out.  Or just send an email list of the items you’re interested in and I’ll tell you the currently-available quantities.  Whatever’s easier for you.  My email is HeartOfRockFarm@gmail.com. 

During the growing and harvesting seasons we might have fresh-cut options available for local pickup.  Be sure to ask.

Remember that you can save on shipping if you’re local to Sherwood, Oregon by scheduling a pick-up time at the farm.  During summer and early fall we often have booths at local farmer’s markets, which is another pickup option as long as we know in advance to pack an order for you.
