PARCHED. If I wanted to dig any roots right now, I’d have a heckuva time finding them. The tops have mostly dried up and fallen away now, but there are still a few stems left standing. A few golden ones now, too. Everything wrapped up the growing season early here because we just haven’t had …
From this point onward during the hot summer months, I will only transplant to pots when there is an order to fill. 1rst, 2nd, but no 3rd year seedlings are available. These are potted seedlings, and I don’t ship those. Bare root seedlings will begin shipping once the weather cools off in fall. It takes …

Here’s what I’ll have with me at the Alpena Mercantile tomorrow (Apr 22). All of these are in pots. You can also reserve these to be picked up at the nursery by emailing me (), and I’ll update the list to strike out the sold out if I get the email this evening. Otherwise, I’ll …
UPDATE: Canceled due to weather potential. Anytime there’s a 40% chance of thunderstorms and folks are traveling hours to get here, it’s a game of odds with potential wasted time and fuel cost.

This year has been a hectic one at Wild Ozark and I haven’t been able to devote as much time to the ginseng as I would have liked. There are still seedlings available in pots, but these are only for local pickup. In fall, I will have first year seedlings that will ship out. Email …
The ginseng garden is waking up! The ginseng habitat garden is a small area of land on a piece of our property that was once logged. Over the past ten years, I’ve worked toward restoring the native plants as the shade has filled in to provide a better environment for them. It is open to …
Season has opened and diggers are out in the woods. With careful stewardship practices, this valuable plant can continue to thrive.

At the Wild Ozark Ginseng nursery, plants are seeded and propagated in a dedicated natural space called the Ginseng Habitat Demonstration Garden. It’s a once-logged area that I’ve worked to recover and replant over the years with the native deep forest flora. I seed in natural habitat, not in pots. Usually each May I transplant …

Welcome to the new site just for my Wild Ozark ginseng posts and pages. You’ve been redirected here from the old site because I’m moving everything ginseng-related from there… to here. While I’ve redirected the main pages and posts, it’s just too hard to do them all. I’m sorry for the inconvenience. The original Wild …
