You know you really should know what you are talking about before you post or you will make your self look like and ass WHICH YOU PROBABLY ARE IN REAL LIFE!!!! You can grow ginger in your garden harvest it and store if. You can also grow it in an indoor herb garden, which most herbalists(and good cooks) do.

I thought aspirin came from willow trees, not aspens.

The same chemical compounds that make a natural aspirin are found in any number of species of trees and bushes, including willows. The main reason I talked about Aspen is that Aspen is the only tree that continues the photosynthesis process during the winter. Because photosynthesis continues in the bark during the winter the chemicals are much more concentrated during the winter months. Of course because photosynthesis is also making sugar the Aspen bark is the main target for rodents, deer, antelope, wild horses, desert bighorn sheep, looking for a high energy meal.

This is such a wonderful response. Thanks. I didn't know that. I know my mother's horses will chew at willows the ease their pains, but not about the Aspens. Another reason to love such a beautiful tree. Aspens in autumn are so lovely.
