Quick!   What is the most annoying weed to remove from your garden? 

In our opinion its the Nettle.  But just guess what many are using to make textiles from?  You guessed it - our prickly pal the Nettle.

On this week's episode of The Growing Season The McFarlands chat about the various horticultural organisms used to make textiles.

Bananas, Pineapples, Flax, Corn, Hemp, Jute, Silk, Sisal and Sugar Cane are all touched on.  Even your food waste and MANURE is being used to create fabric. 

You'll look at your clothes a whole lot differently after you hear Jack, Lynne and Matt discuss them.
