You really don't need a riverbed to grow sturdy arrowroots

To many, arrowroot farming can only be done where there is a flowing stream, river or marshland. But with a new variety called upland arrowroot, all you need is a small piece of land.

This variety can be grown almost anywhere in a regular garden, not necessarily on water-soaked land. Better still, the upland arrowroot variety does not require large amounts of water.
