Rou Dalagurr Food Sovereignty Lab & TEK Institute Our Food Relatives: Acorn

k’iwinya’n-ya:n - “Acorn Eater.” For countless generations, acorns have been a staple of California Indian foodways but you can find acorns across the U.S. and world. Among Hupa people, to call yourself a human being is to say k’iwinya’n-ya:n, one who eats acorns. Our relationship with acorns is more than nutritional, it is cultural, spiritual, ecological, and deeply relational. In this film, the Rou Dalagurr Food Sovereignty Lab team, elders, youth, and community members from multiple area Tribes gather, sort, crack, and cook acorns, carrying forward knowledge that has sustained Native peoples for time immemorial. Learn how acorns feed not just people but also deer, elk, and the forest itself. See how Tanoak acorns from one of our favorite local oak species, are transformed into flour and cooked into key-goh (acorn soup in Yurok). From gathering and intergenerational teaching to grinding, leaching, and cooking, every part of this process is a lesson in reciprocity, patience, and care. Preparing acorns is an act of decolonization, a way of re-rooting ourselves in relationship with the land.
