The Future of Ginseng and Forest Botanicals
July 12-14, 2017
Morgantown, West Virginia (Waterfront Place Hotel)

This symposium, spearheaded by United Plant Savers and in collaboration
with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), is a forum for presenting
current research and documenting critical new information about the
conservation, cultivation, and commerce of American ginseng (*Panax
quinquefolius*) and other Appalachian forest botanicals. This 3-day
symposium will provide a forum to bring together a diverse array of
stakeholders involved in the management and regulation of forest botanicals
in Appalachia, including federal and state agencies, tribal
representatives, academics, landowners, collectors, and the herbal products
industry. The symposium will also include a poster session. Proceedings of
the symposium will be published online on the United Plant Savers website.

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS IS UNDERWAY! See the website for details:
