Appleseed Expeditions partners with educators to provide school trips< that incorporate learning, adventure and service.

Students have an adventurous time kayaking among bioluminescence organisms, snorkeling along coral reef, and canopy rides through the rainforest.
Appleseed Expeditions was named after John Chapman (also known as Johnny Appleseed), who used his passion as an orchardist to provide food for those in need. He planted nearly 100,000 acres of apple tree orchards in the NW territory of the US in the late 1700’s so new settlers and the impoverished would have food during harsh winters. He desired to use what he had been given (his passion & education) to improve the lives of people around him.
Like Johnny Appleseed, we too share in the same desire to help others. Appleseed Expeditions was birthed with a vision of providing an outlet for students to gain inspiration and passion for the world and the people in it. We are planting seeds of service in the lives of students so they too can use their passions, talents, and education to serve our global communities.
