This hands-on workshop is designed to teach participants everything they need to know to start their own backyard ginseng farm. Topics covered include everything from basic ginseng plant identification and history to forest site assessment and planting demonstrations. Participants will receive a copy of the newly revised version of The Practical Guide to Growing Ginseng by Bob Beyfuss, as well as stratified ginseng seed to do some test plantings at home. Come on out and get ready to grow your own!
