nutragon is the name of the company. Several others make it, but that’s the one I’m most familiar with. My boss’ brother works for the Duplin County Ag extension service,and he’s the one that told us. Boss and his brother both take it for chol. It has a lot of antiinflammatory good stuff too. I’ve noticed since I’ve been taking it—not very long, I’m hardheaded—I’m sleeping better and I don’t hurt as much, even this time of year. I’m putting in solid 10 hour days at the store. Some days the only time I sit is driving to and fro.

Yeah, muscadines and scuppernongs are the same thing. Be careful you don’t build a lightning rod!

If I’ve ever seen a mayhaw, it was called by another name. Funny how everywhere has it’s own names for stuff.

Extremely good point that I had failed to properly consider! I guess that is why the plans called for timber posts, but the heat and humidity here are really tough on wood and I figured the iron pipe would work great. Thanks for the reality check ... I'll have to look closer at my friend's vines 'cause I could have sworn that they used some iron in there. Drat!

From what I understand, mayhaws grow only in the deepest part of the south, from Florida over through south Louisiana, in sandy swampy areas. Planted mayhaw orchards are becoming an economic force in other parts of Louisiana that have the right soil to keep them happy. These two websites offer some info: LSU AgCenter and Fruits & Exotics
