Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time just about every day filled with stories for you and your family. Since 2013 we’ve been bringing you tall tales, personal tales, fairy tales, historical tales and more. All kinds of tales, from all kinds of tellers.

Stories have a way of sparking the imagination, and, as we learn in so many stories, the imagination has a way of sparking magic. Whether it's a girl conjuring nighttime in a box, a little boy outsmarting a terrifying ogress, or a heroic little girl defeating demons, the magic we see in stories isn't so far from our very own reality. Enjoy these stories of magic and bravery from all over, today, on The Apple Seed.
