The saying, “when it rains it pours” could not hold any truer than with acorns, the word itself a derivation from the old European “Oak Corn.”

Every fall they appear all over the ground and then slowly disappear again. One of those annual cycles that come and go with little fanfare, and mostly annoyance by the human race. It hasn’t always been that way. Throughout the entirety of man’s evolution, oak trees that dominate much of the temperate regions around the world have supported us with their acorns – rich in carbohydrates, oils, and protein. Oak trees have been known to individually produce up to 1,000 pounds of acorns in a year given the ideal circumstances!

Come learn more about acorns and how to harvest and prepare them with Bill Whipple from Talking Hill Farm at Sprouting Farms September Educational Potluck on Sept. 20.  The event will start at 6:30 p.m. at the Sprouting Farms farm site (Address: 4661 State Route 3 & 12, Talcott, WV 24981).

Bill will go over nut orcharding, gathering, drying, leaching, preparing wild-harvested nuts, and will talk about the Acornucopia Project (www.Acornucopiaproject.com) which will be paying cash for wild nuts this fall. Specifically, Black Oak (Quercus Velutina) and Bitternut Hickory (Carya Cordiformis).

For more information about the free presentation and potluck, visit the Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1434689443288711/ or call 304-445-5538.
