Red oak acorns take two years to mature and are high in tannins, which makes them bitter. White oak acorns mature in just one year and have lower tannin levels, so they taste sweeter. White oak acorns are a hot commodity! Animals like squirrels, deer, chipmunks, blue jays and wild turkeys snap them up as soon as they hit the ground. To beat the feeding frenzy, white oak acorns germinate almost immediately in the fall, sending out a root before they can be carried away or eaten. This gives seedlings a head start so at least a few survive to become a tree.🌳

Planting work begins months before trees go in the ground. First the sites are approved and permitted by CCG, then we choose the species. Today is a species selection day at Edgewood Park. Let’s see what that looks like!
