Johnny Appleseed's Birthday 9-26












Happy birthday, Johnny Appleseed! John Chapman, the real Johnny Appleseed, was born on this date in 1774 in Leominster, Massachusetts. A pioneer nurseryman, Chapman became a legend during his own lifetime for his leadership in conservation, his kind and generous ways, and his introduction of apple trees across a large portion of the young nation.  Let's celebrate this amazing pioneer!  What is your favorite type of apple?
