What do you see? Spoons or forks?

Once again, it's time for our annual Persimmon Seed forecast!
According to the East Tennessee tradition, you can forecast the coming winter by splitting open a seed from a ripe persimmon. If the embryo tree inside looks like a knife, it will be "cold cutting winds" all winter - cold but dry. If it's shaped like a spoon, it will "spoon down" lots of snow on you. And if it's shaped like a fork or dinner plate, it will be "mild enough to eat dinner outdoors" this winter.
We're beginning to find a few ripe persimmons here at the park. So take a look, and tell us - do you see spoons or forks?

By the way, did you know that today (3rd Thursday in September) is named for another native tree fruit? Yes, it's National PawPaw day!

UPDATE (3.18.20): Starting tomorrow, March 19th, we are adding additional bus delivery of free meals throughout our community. We'll now actually be running all of our regular bus routes during both breakfast and lunch loaded up with free meals for any child age 18 or under that would like one.

ATTN Kingsport City Schools Families: We wanted to provide you some important information regarding the feeding program that KCS will be offering during our school closure. FREE BREAKFAST and FREE LUNCH for children 18 and under will be available at most school locations and will be delivered by buses on all days we are closed for COVID-19 (Coronavirus), other than Spring Break, when federal regulations prevent us from doing that. One meal will be given per child, who does not need to be a KCS student. Please visit our website www.k12k.com for additional details.
