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.
