GINSENG DEALERS LIST & MORE

If you are one of the many sang diggers (locally called), also known as ginseng diggers, that is looking to learn more about sanging, here you go. Please note, I have left a link to the Kentucky Ginseng Dealers (buyers) by name or county, at the bottom of page.

You can click here to view the laws and regulations for Kentucky Ginseng. And on that page there is also links to other states' ginseng rules and regulations. Please remember that every state has its' own different set of specific rules and regulations for ginseng cultivating. So please check that link out before you dig.

Ginseng is known to many as a cure all plant. It is a very slow growing perennial plant that is harvested for the roots. The word ginseng actually means "the essence of man."

A few things ginseng is suppose to help cure are:
  • headaches
  • erectile dysfunction
  • fatigue
  • concentration
  • quick recovery time from hangovers
  • stress
  • menopause
  • help build stronger immune systems
  • slows down the aging process
With all these great uses for ginseng, you can imagine the huge market for the plants' cure all root. Currently, the average selling price per pound of dried, wild ginseng is running between $800 - $900 per pound, locally. That's amazing! But remember that it takes a lot of roots to make a pound, when dried.
