Poke Salad, Mullein, and Other Crop Alternatives in Southern Arkansas

ATTRA - Voices from the Field

In this episode of Voices from the Field, Kandi Williams of the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff’s Small Farms Program talks with Arkansas farmer Michael Henegan about his farming heritage and some of his methods to reach markets that others don't by wildcrafting local herbs and plants, including mullein and poke salad.
Kandi also works with the Silas H. Hunt Community Development Corporation, which partnered in producing this podcast.

This podcast was also produced by the National Center for Appropriate Technology
through the ATTRA Sustainable Agriculture program, under a cooperative
agreement with USDA Rural Development. This podcast was also made possible in
part by funding from the Southern Risk Management Education Center, USDA
National Institute of Food and Agriculture, through the University of Arkansas.
