Acorns: a Native American Staple

at Horsetown Clear Creek Preserve

organized by: Horsetown-Clear Creek Preserve

Native Wintu herbalist Ted Dawson will discuss the acorn, from harvest to food items. You’ll be invited to join in grinding acorns with mortar and pestle and be rewarded with the best acorn dishes in Shasta County. You’re probably aware that acorns were a staple food of the Native Americans of California, but there’s more. Bring the family. Meet at the HCCP parking area at 1 pm.
