There are no acorns or hickory nuts up here in Putnam County, NY either. Virginia saw no acorns or hickory nuts in 2008. Naturalists there speculated that spring rains may have washed out all the pollen from the air in the spring preventing acorn and hickory pollination. I remember remarking this past spring that our cars and decks had not been covered in the usual heavy yellow pollen that we get every spring. Perhaps this is the cause.
Acorns are the fruit of the oak tree.
November
Some acorns will fall to the ground, or squirrels can carry them away and bury the acorns some distance from the Oak tree. Not all acorns will be found again by the squirrel.
Acorns are the fruits (seeds) produced by Oak trees. The Oak tree will attempt to grow acorns every year. In some years the conditions for them are better and others but there are always some.
Oak trees drop their acorns in the early fall. Pollen carries through the air in the spring to make acorns.
White oaks take one year to produce acorns. Red oaks take two years to produce acorns.
Annual cost (as of Fall 2008) is $27,400.

because it is going to be a touch winter this year.
The process necessary to make acorns into pancakes is long and difficult. Acorns in their natural state are not fit for human consumption. Native Americans and people of other cultures had methods of first soaking acorns to remove bitter tannins (a natural chemical), then mashing or drying the acorns to grind into meal.
