About Online Programs @ KCKPL

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Kansas City, Kansas Public Library had to close temporarily for the safety of staff and patrons. To still maintain a connection with the community and serve our patrons, we’ve created this blog to host online programming. You can find out full event calendar here.

According to local folklore, a common persimmon seed can predict what type of winter is in store. Cutting open a seed to reveal a fork-shaped kernel predicts a mild winter with little snow. If you see a knife shape, you can expect frigid winds that will “cut” through you. A spoon forecasts heavy snowfall. Based on these predictions, what kind of winter do you think Kansas City will have? Seeds were harvested from a persimmon tree at Wyandotte County Lake Park, behind the Mr. and Mrs. F.L. Schlagle library.

Are these zombie brains just in time for Halloween? Nope! They are the fruit from the Osage Orange tree, also known as "hedge apples." These green, bumpy fruits are not common food sources for wildlife or people, but the tree provides protection for birds and small mammals and, historically, has been used by humans for fence lines, bow making, and tool handles. Read more about this tree at the link in our bio. ⁠
