The Black Oak & the Acorn Larder
A broad-crowned California black oak that the Serrano people treated as a grocery store — its acorns leached, pounded, and cooked into a staple porridge. It still feeds the forest, dropping thousands of acorns in a good year for deer, pigeons, woodpeckers, and squirrels.
