Historical note: Johnny Appleseed is a staple of American frontier lore. He was a real person and quite a character. He set up apple nurseries across a wide area, usually staying well ahead of the population wave so that by the time people arrived in an area, his trees would have had time to mature and be productive.

But Johnny wasn't producing tasty apples for baking in pies. Johnny was basically making sure that the folks on the frontier had plenty of hard cider. They didn't mention that in elementary schools when I was young. Of course, they may not mention him at all these days. I suspect they only teach about Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, and Martin Luther King. We don't need any other folk heroes.
