Permaculture weaves homestead activities into multi-yeilding workflows
Purple dead nettle was taking over the garlic bed so I weeded it.
Instead of throwing the nettles in the compost pile I harvested the flowers to dehydrate into antihistamine tea to help with my springrime allergies. (Using an S9 Bitcoin miner as the heat and airflow for the dehydrator box)
I tossed all the nettle stems and other weeds into the rabbit colony as a snack for the bunnies.
The yields from this workflow: weeded garlic for improved future yeild, dehydrated nettle for tea, mined Bitcoin, fed rabbits.

This batch of purple dead nettle took about 12hrs to dehydrate with the bitcoin mining dehydrator.
Promptly made a cup of tea to try it out. On its own it has a flavor reminiscent of spinach. The local honey did a lot of work making it palatable but I'm drinking this tea as medicine. Hard to say after only one cup how strong the antihistamine effect is but I will continue to drink the tea and observe my allergy symptoms.
After gorging on the stems from the nettle, the rabbits hardly touched the grain mix we feed them. I'm sure the luscious greens were a welcome change since they haven't got anything different since I pruned the fruit trees a couple months ago.
Feel free to message if you want some dehydrated purple dead nettle. Value for value plus shipping cost.
