To Flip Or Not Flip? Johnny A number of states along the wilderness roads Johnny Appleseed traveled claim him as their own today with festivals, plaques, markers, and statues. The beginning of that road was Leominster, Massachusetts. Johnny Appleseed was born in Leominster, and Leominster figures prominently in Appleseed celebrations. There is, for example, an annual parade and an annual festival. The Leominster web site has a community calendar. A Leominster resident and Johnny Appleseed enthusiast created a Johnny Appleseed web site with lots of Appleseed information and Appleseed pictures. Leominster is near the Johnny Appleseed Visitor Center in Lancaster where a statue of Johnny Appleseed as a young boy, pictured at left, graces "the gateway to the The Johnny Appleseed Trail."
