Thanks! Johnny Appleseed


Eat an Apple today to thank Johnny Appleseed on his special day. Maybe make an apple pie or baked apple chips for your loved ones too!

Johnny Appleseed is remembered in American popular culture by his traveling song or Swedenborgian hymn 
("The Lord is good to me...") which is today sung before meals in some American households.

Supposedly, the only surviving tree planted by Johnny Appleseed is on the farm of Richard and Phyllis Algeo of
Nova, Ohio.
