Summary

Johnny Appleseed is an American folk hero. And like any good folk tale, the story of the barefoot, coffee-sack wearing vagrant with a tin pot for a hat who planted apple seeds across the midwestern United States is rooted in a fair degree of truth. In this Dirt Dispatch I'll tell you about the man behind the myth of Johnny Appleseed. Support the podcast!
