Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time 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.

As people, we are constantly making plans, setting goals, and working towards them. No one ever got anywhere by sitting back and waiting for what they want to wander by. Getting what we really want in life takes a lot of effort and planning, but even the best laid plans can go awry - in fact, they often do. When they do, we have to figure out how we are going to solve our new problems and get ourselves back on track. In today’s stories, we’ll get to see how unexpected situations arise and how our protagonists deal with them.
