Thanks for this. My wife and I were just discussing growing goldenseal after first looking into ginseng. I believe this is a better choice for us as it takes much less time to harvest and has many of the same benefits.

You're welcome! Yes, it's a great choice for the homesteader in these regions. My friend who has been growing it for decades also recommended it above ginseng for the reasons you listed, although ginseng is a much more powerful immune system tonic. goldenseal, while also an immune booster, shouldn't be taken for long periods like ginseng should. it's more of a stimulator and not a long term tonic.
