Robert is Land Steward of Eagle Feather Organic Farm, owner of the North Carolina Ginseng and Goldenseal Company and has written two booklets on growing programs for ginseng and goldenseal in a chemical free environment. He has also recently produced a video entitled Growing Goldenseal, which is now available.
Gary is a forest botanical specialist with the National Forest of NC and is headquartered in Asheville. His work has been highlighted in the Asheville Citizen Times and the Audubon magazine.
Come join us to see Goldenseal and Ginseng in a forest environment as the plants go down for the fall. We will explore a rich Appalachian cove where these plants live and then hunt the ginseng berries. The berries will be eaten for their medicinal benefits and the seeds will be placed in a stratification box for a year. The cultivation of native medicinal plants as a new business opportunity will be mentioned. New marketing strategies and organizations will be highlighted.
WORKSHOP WILL BE HELD AT EAGLE FEATHER ORGANIC FARM MARSHALL, NC
