GINSENG HAUL [t-shirt]

It's ginseng season in the mountains of Appalachia, where on north-facing shaded slopes in rich dark soil, red berries glow amongst the late summer green of maidenhair fern and black cohosh. Grizzled diggers trek up the mountains to their secret patches and forest farmers take to their unspoken backyard patches to dig up the mythic ginseng for market, for medicine, for the living folkway that reaches back to the 18th-century where an unlikely trade began between the likes of Daniel Boone, the early American frontiersmen and ancient China.
