2020 Ginseng Digging Season Kick-Off

Season has opened and diggers are out in the woods. With careful stewardship practices, this valuable plant can continue to thrive. For a thoughtful collection of articles and tips on how you can ensure ginseng’s survival, visit 100 Days of Ginseng. Sarah Jackson has been an active advocate for the plant and she’s put together a nice website where you can get the information and even some ginseng-related swag, too.

If you’re searching for a buyer, or a buyer searching for some roots, feel free to post over at my annual Ginseng Prices page. Diggers – leave the latest prices you’ve been offered and let us know the state. Buyers – let diggers know where you are and how to reach you. Feel free to post anything American ginseng related. The only rule is to keep it civil.
