You don't specify your city, but have a look at the Mountain Herb Estate web site: www.herbgarden.co.za. They are outside Pretoria, very helpful, and could probably courier for you if necessary. They do sell Burdock, but I think it's the Articum Lappa variety. If you are looking for a different one they might be able to source it for you or point you in the right direction.
