I hope its ok to post this news, but thought many of you would be saddened to hear that Dr. Andy Hankins passed away Nov 15 from a heart attack. I believe he was 58 years old. Though I only met him on one occasion, we see his name on this forum almost day, and are probably all dependent on the knowledge of ginseng he chose to share. He was really a pioneer for ginseng cultivation, not just here in Virginia, but everywhere.
