Ms. Mitchell's 1st grade class celebrated Johnny Appleseed Day by learning about John Chapman who established many apple orchards and gave seedlings to settlers in the west. They tasted different apples, drank apple juice, compared homemade and store-bought applesauce, and composted the apple cores and peels.
