Mulch with 3 inches of shredded hardwood or leaf mulch

Harvesting
Harvest in the fall
Dig the plant up with a garden fork or spade, being careful not to damage the root.
Shake free of soil and separate out any roots that are not black cohosh. You must keep it protected from sun and heat, and the roots need to not dry out during the cleaning process if they are going to be used to re-plant.
If you are wanting black cohosh to be dried, dry them at low heat with a high airflow. Around 80-90 Degrees Fahrenheit
Warnings: There are minimal issues with Black Cohosh, there is a small chance that is can interact with some medications. If you have liver conditions it is wise to consult your doctor before taking Black Cohosh even in small doses.
