Your instructor & New Bff

I’m Lindsey—I teach curious creatives how to build with their hands & find more joy in the everyday.

As the shopkeeper and maker behind The Wild Nettle, I’m passionate about bringing people together around creativity, seasonal traditions, herbalism, and the simple art of making.

My workshops are designed to feel less like a class and more like a gathering around the table—welcoming, hands-on, and full of room to experiment.
