Daniel Boone national forest continues permit suspension for ginseng harvesting season

The Daniel Boone National Forest is continuing its ban on ginseng harvesting through this year’s collection season.

The suspension of ginseng harvesting permits by the forest is to allow wild populations of the crop to regenerate. The typical number of ginseng plants for a sustainable population is between 100 and 150. The Daniel Boone National Forest reports much smaller numbers, between one and ten plants in each wild crop.
