Plant and root guys...

If you could who would take lessons from on Midwest ginseng, goldenseal and other edible saleable plants?

mike, are you looking for someone to help you? I don't quite understand the question.

Yes I am a rookie in the ginseng golden seal and valuable edible plant area....looking for recommendations for a good teacher

I'm all ears also. I don't want to think I'm eating a Morel and find that after my dream of drinking from a giant vat of chocolate milk, my truck has no oil.

Thought I'd get a few more bites...looking for a good teacher.

I can help you on roots (ginseng, yellow root, black cohosh, blood root, etc.) but the only mushrooms I'm positive on are morels. We can find some other types of fungi and let you sample them to see if they are edible!!

Gee thanks Randy! lol

I agree with CH. I know roots, just about everything that has value. My daughter Julie knows everything that can be eaten, but very little about roots, but we are teaching each other.Anyway, if you ever get to northern Indiana I would love to take a walk in the woods with you.

If you get to Southern Indiana, stop and see me. I know a little about roots and herbs. Been digging them for 50 years and been buying them for 45 years, so I might be able to shed a little bit of light on the subject.

I wouldn't mind helpin you out mike, but tryin to find time would be the issue for me.....seems i'm always too dang busy.

Thank you for your offers....will be in contact.
I was also considering contacting Ron Cauble

Is Ron still with us?

Yes as far as I know....read his latest column in the Furtaker mag.
