Ginseng Auction
« on: October 02, 2011, 07:14:18 PM »
Can anyone tell me when they have an auction in WI for cultivated ginseng? I think a grower told me it is run like a tobacco auction in the south, in which the seng is graded and sold.

That's interesting.  I have never heard of a ginseng auction of that type.  Typically in Ontario, the buyers visit the farms when they start washing and drying to see what the crop looks like and make their deals there with the individual farmer.

Foxy, do you need to buy ginseng or sell it?
