English oak (Quercus robur) in autumn.
The acorn is the nut of the oak, the genus of about 450 species of ornamental and timber trees and shrubs in the beech family (Fagaceae), distributed throughout the north temperate zone and at high altitudes in the tropics.
In our regions, you shall be able to find lots of oak trees, one of the most widespread trees in the world. For centuries the acorn was a staple of the human diet, but it got somehow left into the background only to be used in animal food. In the 1970s is became also very popular as an alternative to a ‘coffee drink’.
Acorns provide food for small game animals and are used to fatten swine and poultry; the acorns of some species can be made into a flour for human consumption.

If you’re ready to enjoy a flavourful, healthy flour that’s a pleasant blend of sweet and nutty, then you’ll want to try making acorn flour. It’s an easy, affordable habit that not only makes meals more flavourful but is also one that puts you on the fast track toward self-reliance. And these days, just about everyone knows that self-reliance is essential, especially as society stands on the brink of collapse.
Mike Adams has been warning NaturalNews readers of society’s impending collapse for quite some time. He wrote about it in the summer of 2014, in a story where he revealed his poverty-stricken-turned-successful life and detailed key points on how to fight for the future of mankind.
The Health Ranger continues to encourage self-reliance, suggesting that people turn away from dependency on traditional food purchases and instead, become involved with “revolutionary, low-tech technology.” One such technology is his Mini-Farm Grow Box, a 100 percent non-electric manner of producing nutrient-dense vegetables and herbs, which is found on FoodRising.org.
