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.
