Shade-loving medicinal herbs can be successfully cultivated in a forest garden for personal use or as small-scale cash crops. \u003ci\u003e Growing and Marketing Ginseng, Goldenseal and other Woodland Medicinals \u003c\/i\u003e is a complete guide to these increasingly popular botanicals, aimed at aspiring and experienced growers alike. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In this fully revised and updated edition, authors Jeanine Davis and W. Scott Persons show how more than a dozen sought-after native species can generate a greater profit on a rugged, otherwise idle woodlot than just about any other legal crop on an equal area of cleared land. With little capital investment but plenty of sweat equity, patience, and common sense, small landowners can preserve and enhance their treed space while simultaneously earning supplemental income. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e List of Tables \u003cbr\u003e Preface I (Scott Persons) \u003cbr\u003e Preface II (Jeanine Davis) \u003cbr\u003e Author Biographies \u003cbr\u003e Abbreviations and Definitions (Jeanine Davis) \u003cbr\u003e General Introduction (Jeanine Davis and Scott Persons) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Part One: American Ginseng (Scott Persons) \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.
