Actually I looked up the real story of Johnny Appleseed and he was more about making hard cider and selling land. ๐
We do have fruit trees in my country and it's even normal for people that live around parks to plant them. Funny enough I've never seen a homeless person taking a fruit, always families.
The seeds Johnny Appleseed used were sour and tasted like shit. They were used for making hard cider. No kids would eat them.
My US city has a few parks with apple trees, herb gardens, and other edibles. I don't think there's any law or rule against people going out and harvesting small individual use amounts as long as you don't damage the plant. They do send out volunteer crews at harvest time (for the apples at least) and donate the harvest to food banks.
I don't buy rosemary because there's a bunch of parks around with rosemary bushes.
When I lived in the city, we caught people trespassing all the time stealing our fruit off our trees.
They would walk up our private driveway, and walk on our path near our front door, then load BAGS full and leave. I called them out as thief a few times, but those Mother F@$@ people just give a smug look back. These people were Pure evil. So happy to move to the country.
