Usually oak trees start to produce acorns at 50 years of age. They then produce over 10,000 acorns most of which are digested by animals & fertilized into the ground. It is estimated only 1 in 1000 survives to be an oak tree. Throughout the centuries, mainly in parts of Europe, people worshipped oak trees, associating them with the mythological gods Zeus & Jupiter. Druids married under the spreading branches of oaks & carried acorns believing it would bring them happiness & good health.
