Julian is a popular spot for apple picking in Southern California.
Julian, Calif., located just north of San Diego, is a small town known for the
abundance of apples grown in the area.
On October 9, 1909, colorful apple displays were set up in Town Hall, there
was an all-night dance, free food, some speeches and a baseball game with the
town of Ramona. There was foot racing, rooster-pulling on horseback, and fancy
riding tricks by individual horsemen. The event was designed to celebrate a
successful harvest and has become part of the area's annual traditions for
decades.
