Johnny Appleseed
Johnny Appleseed was born John Chapman in Leominster in 1774. Travelling west he introduced apple trees to large parts of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. He became an American legend while still alive, largely because of his kind and generous ways, his great leadership in conservation, and the symolic importance of apples.
On Johnny Appleseed lane you will find a head stone and a replica house. As the head stone states Johnny Appleseed was born near this site.

Your blog has been included in our guide Around The World.
The guide is both a record of old blogs and a listing of new blogs. Although originally arising from the CDPB lists this is an independent publication. Inclusion here does not imply that a blog qualifies for nor is officially a CDPB. Our criteria are that photographs mainly from a specific geographical location (not necessarily a “city” but usually more specific than a whole country or region) are posted at dated intervals (not necessarily daily) and archives are readily searchable by date.
Please keep us informed of any changes to your details.
