To harvest nettle is an act of trust — you must brave the sting to reach the cure.

Nettle is a home for work that requires that same careful handling.

We seek writing that is sharp, untamed, and deeply medicinal — pieces that peel back the surface of the contemporary experience to reveal the pulse beneath.

From the nuanced realities of womanhood and the journey of mental health, to the wild roots of nature writing, we champion the stories that get under your skin and heal from the inside out.
