HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN!

     MONDAY, MARCH 11, 2024

     HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN!

 It's March 11th everybody and that means    

   it's John Chapman's Birthday. He was born 
on this date in 1774.
     Mr. Chapman was an American pioneer
nurseryman who introduced apple trees
to large parts of Pennsylvania. But he didn't
stop there!
      His trees were distributed in Ohio,
Indiana,  Illinois, and northern counties
of West Virginia to name a few of the
others.
      Thanks to his efforts I've enjoyed
plenty of apples over the years and an
apple dumpling whenever I can find
one.
     Oh, by the way, you may remember
Mr Chapman by his other name.
Johnny Appleseed!
     Yep. It's a true story!
     Hope you'll have an apple in his
honor today and that all your NEWS
is good!
     

  It's March 11th everybody! And that

means it's John Chapman Day!!!
