Green Nettle

When the wastelands on the slopes of Mount Kenya were given to poor local farmers to provide livelihood for them, they began  producing sustainable material from large stinging nettles growing there. Through cooperation with a clothing brand, Green Nettle makes fabric from stinging nettles that can grow on the steep slopes of Mount Kenya National Park.
