The Nettle

They call it just a simple weed, Not knowing the treasures that come from its seed, Nutritious ingredient for soup stew or tea, Rich in minerals and vitamin C, A natural cure for stiff aching joints, Just one of its good medicinal points, A home for butterfly, ladybird and moth, This versatile plant that also makes cloth, So many moan "Oh how it stings" Not giving thought to the uses it brings, But a true gardener its virtues does know, So leaves it in peace, the wind its seeds to sow.

from Reflections of Mother Earth by Dave Pearse.

At firemaker.biz we believe the essence of bushcraft is about being in touch with your environment and re-discovering the wonder of nature. Through this you can become more at home in the wild and begin to thrive as well as survive.
We aim to provide essential bushcraft tools that perform well in demanding conditions.
