The Today's Acorns = Tomorrow's Trees program runs from September through October. The NJ Tree Nursery needs your acorns to grow the trees of tomorrow.

• Identify a red oak, pin oak, or chestnut oak tree
• Collect acorns in burlap sacks provided by the NJ Forest Nursery
• Do not mix species - one species per bag.
• Keep your collection cool until you drop it off to the Nursery or any Acorn Drop-off Point
• To ensure we can use your acorns, please drop them off within 10 days

Please do not collect acorns in plastic bags or shoeboxes - use only the burlap sacks provided by the nursery. Sprouted acorns are not viable. Although we do have other oak species in New Jersey, the nursery only needs acorns from pin oak, red oak, and chestnut oak.
