President Ridge Runner Trading Company, Boone, NC
February 2, 1955 – July 2, 2020

It is with tremendous sadness that we mourn the loss of AHP advisor and friend Tony Hayes. Tony was one of the hidden treasures of the North American herbal wildcrafting traditions with a specialization in wild American ginseng. His passing is a great loss to the American herbal community. Our thoughts and prayers are with Tony’s family.
