The people with Appalachian Beginning Forest Farmer Coalition are doing great work, and I wanted to get their information up here. You can visit their website at https://www.appalachianforestfarmers.org/. I’d also like to plug their webinar series, which offers some great tips and interviews with forest farmers on how to grow everything from ginseng to mushrooms. There are ways to both profit from this kind of agriculture and improve the health of the forest and broader mountain ecosystem, and this organization is helping to make that happen. Although the webinar series is over, you can still access the recordings here: https://www.appalachianforestfarmers.org/forestfocus?fbclid=IwAR3czJr46RKGqldgirQXYpc07Fzfe2K2BMMSUB-vI8kfPfd9mq62AspHRmo
