FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): Fort Wayne’s annual Johnny Appleseed Festival is going to get some national exposure.

This is the 43rd year for the festival, which runs Saturday and Sunday at Johnny Appleseed Park, near the Memorial Coliseum. The annual event is free and features 1800s-era food, music and activities, while celebrating the legacy of John Chapman, the man the Johnny Appleseed story is based on, whose grave is found within the park.
