TOPIC: Mississippi Ginseng

I think we have four new members from your part of the south now. If you get a few more, you guys could have your own convention , maybe near Yazoo City or something...

It's good to see your interest in the forum!

4? Me and 2 others I found.... I guess I should read through this again, lol... Who's the 4th?

Hi farawaysis, it was really great to get an email from you. I think Whitjr has a good idea, a Mississippi convention. What ya think?

I think it's a great idea! I'd like to see Mississippi become the 20th state with a USFWS and CITES approved ginseng program. This might be a step in the right direction

I might have been wrong about 4 members from Mississippi. However, you guys should get together.... I have suggested this before to others on this forum, and it seems to be a good idea.. and we havn't done it yet!

I have seen a few ginseng plants in MS as far south as Blue Mountain. Thats only about an hour south of the TN line though. There may be lots of it, I was looking for burls not ginseng.

I sure would like to see some Mississippi Ginseng videos or pictures. I Love this new info. If I Find some here west of Claremont,NC I will be tickled to death.

i am going to try and find some this year but cant seem to find anything on ginseng in ms not even a place to sell it if i find it

I just joined and am wanting to learn more about growing ginseng in Mississippi. I live in Marion County which has the Pearl River basin running through it and is a well known American Indian trade route and would love to find out if ginseng can be grown and harvested in Mississippi. Would to start a chapter or whatever needs to be done to get every one connected.

Thanks,
Chris
