The folk hero,
Johnny Appleseed,
died a wealthy man!
died a wealthy man!
To make a very long story short, John Chapman planted apple orchards in uninhabited frontier lands. At the time, a fully planted apple orchard could establish legal land rights. Eventually, Johnny would sell off the land and the apples for a very nice profit.
The apples were tiny, tart, and not very tasty. If you want to find out more about what Johnny Appleseed did with these tart little apples and get FREE Apple Journal Writing Papers, click here or click on one of the pictures below.
I hope these apple papers will inspire your students to write about Johnny Appleseed, apples, or Autumn.
Best wishes!
