The annual Acorn Day event at the State Indian Museum and Sutter’s Fort on Saturday, October 18 from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. This event celebrates the cultural and environmental importance of the acorn, including the often unrecognized creatures that contribute to healthy oak trees.
Acorn Day is an annual celebration that brings together community members to learn about the cultural significance of acorns—a traditional food staple for California Native peoples. Acorns have been a vital part of Native Californian diets for thousands of years, and this event showcases the process of turning acorns into food, from harvesting to preparation.
