I just wonder why you want to pick up the acorns.What are you going to
do
with them?
I have 4 oak trees all over 50 yrs of age which shed loads of acorns but
within a few weeks they are taken by squirrels, Jays, pigeons, mice
etc,
and I doubt if I find more than about 20 a year trying to grow.
Just a guess, but the acorn shells are hard and sharp and don't lend
to a "barefoot lawn". (?) That's why I do it. Wish there was some use
for them. I checked for recipes, but they seem to be more trouble than
they're worth culinarily- is that a word?
It is now, Mr. President. :-)
