Join Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger on a journey to Leominster, Massachusetts, the legendary birthplace of one of America's most curious folk heroes—John Chapman, better known as Johnny Appleseed. But this isn’t the Johnny Appleseed you read about as a child. Uncover the surprising secrets behind the man in the tin hat, the true tales left out of the storybooks, and why his legacy is far more mysterious than you might think. This isn’t just an orchard walk; it’s a deep-rooted mystery waiting to be uncovered!
