Coast live oak trees are native to the Bay Area and was an important food source for the Ohlone tribe.[1] However, this article claims that natives felt acorns from live oaks were "too wormy" and "too easy to get — nothing that plentiful can be very good."

Some of the oldest in San Francisco are in Golden Gate Park's Oak Woodlands Natural Area on the northeast corner of the park.
