JOHNNY APPLESEED DAY

Today is the day we celebrate the man, the legend--Johnny Appleseed.  He was a man that led an interesting and generous life.  Born John Chapman (September 26, 1774 - March 18, 1845) he was an American pioneer that introduced apple trees to much of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois.  

As he traveled west he planted apple seeds along the way, and because of his love for nature and animals became a legend.  So celebrate today by snacking on a delicious apple!
