097 Considering the Soil: An Agrarian Perspective on Chinese Herb Cultivation • Jean Giblette

There is more to growing herbs than understanding plants. There are the considerations of soil, economic environment, weather patterns, cultural and market forces, and the kind of eye and vision that can see the interactions of these forces not just over seasons, but years or decades.

In this conversation we explore the cultivation of Chinese herbs here in the West with one of the pioneers of the movement to bring domestic cultivation of Chinese herbs from a curiosity to viable economic reality.

Listen in for a glimpse the ecosystem required that makes domestic production of Chinese medicinals a possibility.
