The two part agenda is simple.

Awaken Americans to the struggles, sacrifices, and successes of the men and woman of the Revolutionary War.
Revive the American Rifleman and once again become a nation of Riflemen. Sure of thier rights, sure of thier duties, sure of thier ability to defend themselves, faimiles, nieghbours, and country.

The training consists of rifle saftey, use of a sling, sight adjustments, correct body posistion for prone, sitting, kneeling, and standing. The 6 steps of firing a shot. Bonus 7th step included free!
And a whole dose of stories about the fight for freedom.

It is NOT Militia training. You will NOT not be doing a five mile run before shooting, and doing push ups in the mud. You WILL be learning some history and rilfe marksmanship with real Americans.
At the last Appleseed I attended, there were people from 10 years old to 70ish, male and female, expert shots, first time shooters.
Rifles from bolt action .22, semi auto .22, SKS, AR15, Mini-14, M1A, M1 Garand, and even one BMG 50.


"Posterity, you will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that ever I took half the pains to preserve it." John Adams

Go to the website and read up on the Project, get involved, we could use some more Patriots.
