Income Opportunities with Forest Botanicals

Forest botanicals, also known as “non-timber forest products” are useful herbs, berries, roots, and mushrooms that grow in the woods of Appalachia.  Wild-crafted or cultivated, forest botanicals can provide supplementary income to landowners.  Appalachian Sustainable Development provides educational opportunities in gathering, growing, and marketing these products.  See our calendar for upcoming events.

For more information about growing and marketing these products, download Forest Botanicals: Income Opportunities From the Forest Understory.
