RE: American Ginseng – Cash crop, medicine and more

in #foraging7 years ago

I have the seeds and am wondering still where to plant them. I am actually excited to see how the flowers and blooms are. It's really a beautiful plant.

Curious as to where I live, how or where I would be able to sell the roots later after they've matured enough.

Sort:  

I will specifically look for more information on that with the next post on the medicinal aspects. So far, all I have found is info on which states it is legal to export wild ginseng. Where to sell it may be a little harder to find because most people don't want any competition. I would imagine however, it could easily be sold at farmers markets and you could possibly find a local herbalist willing to purchase from you to.

You can also sell on Ebay. There are people from all over the world selling them there. Just note that people will want to know the age before they buy. There are enough of the active Ginsenosides and Gintonins to make them usable after just 3 years, but 5 year or older plants will bring more money.
