Ann will talk about her travels to the collection areas of jatamansi (Nardostachys jatamansi), a threatened medicinal plant that is going through the process of becoming FairWild certified in these regions. She will explain the supply network for jatamansi, from source through regional processing centers to the wholesale markets where the roots are traded to India and beyond. She also will talk about initiatives to cultivate ginger and turmeric using agroforestry and permaculture farming practices.
