GATLINBURG â The City of Gatlinburg is planning more than $1 million in paving in the FY 2021-2022 budget.
The budget, which City Commission will consider first reading of at 6 p.m. today in City Hall, includes revenues for paving.
âIt is almost nine miles of roads we are doing this year,â public information officer Seth Butler said.
In a presentation about capital projects earlier this year, Public Works Director Larry Henderson expressed pride in the work the City has done for paving, especially in the last five years.
The city has spent approximately $5.7 million in the last five years to pave 58.35 miles of the cityâs approximately 93.24 miles of roadway, Henderson said.
CHERRY SHOPS AND STANDS
Even if you miss the blossoms or harvest, the bigger cherry orchards have tours, events and shops filled with cherry-based food products. And there s always something cherry-related in season at roadside stands and markets.
Lautenbach s Orchard Country Winery & Market, 9197 State 42, Fish Creek: It s a one-stop cherry experience: tours, wine samples and cherry food products for sale. Enjoy a closeup view of blossoms and pick your own tart cherries.
Seaquist Orchards Farm Market, 11482 State 42, Sister Bay: The bakery takes the cake, or rather pie, from Muffin Mondays to Fritter Fridays at this orchard and shop just north of Sister Bay. The family-owned operation is into its fifth generation and boasts approximately 1,000 acres of tart cherry trees that on average produces about 6 million pounds of cherries.
Even if you visit Door County only for its shops, nature, arts or another reason, you really have to go out of your way to miss spotting at least a few cherry trees, the cherry-based foods and the wine.
The peninsula s 2,500 acres of cherry orchards are a destination visited each year by visitors in search of spring blossom photo ops and, later in summer, opportunities to pick their own cherries.
Yet the trees aren t native to the area. In fact, growing cherry trees in Door County started as an experiment; they were among various fruit crops planted on 80 acres in the late 1800s.
