Heads up…Goji Berry is a Local!

Posted by Jake. 5 Comments

Tis the season…to be hunting GOJI BERRY!

Been on the lookout on my hikes around these parts, hoping this is the year…to find that elusive, yet ever present GOJI BERRY.  In the video, you can hear David mention 15 varieties found in the southwestern deserts.  I’m seeing them listed in local herb/plant books too!  This video will show you what you’re looking for….

For the Utah wildcrafters, some of the varieties mentioned a lot, are LYCIUM cooperi, LYCIUM andersonii, and LYCIUM pallidum, keep an eye out, and if you spot one, shoot me an email…!!!  Would LOVE to grow the local strains a long with their Asian brothers.

Happy hunting….they’re out there!
