I have been planting oak trees from acorns since the mid-2000s and have had good success (in most cases). This past fall, we planted about 13 acres this way on the new farm. In this episode, we show the results (how many trees came up) and go through the steps involved in direct seeding acorns to grow oak trees.

Here is a link to the Iowa State Forestry Extension Office white paper that I have been using as my guide to planting acorns: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gtqd...
