Send Us Your Iconic Apple Valley and Rosemount Photos!

Apple Valley-Rosemount Patch needs a new banner photo, and we're looking for suggestions or pictures from the community.

Calling all amateur and professional photographers! In a few short weeks, Apple Valley-Rosemount Patch will be transitioning to a new website format—one that will have all kinds of benefits for our local readers and users.

Post your high-quality images of the city to Patch by pressing the 'Upload' button on this page, or email them to me at david.henke@patch.com. I'll look over the submissions, and may choose one or more of your photos to serve as a banner image at the top of our home page. If you're not a photographer, but still want to participate, …

This Just In: We're Merging Apple Valley and Rosemount Patch!

All the news and information you need for both cities will be found on a single site.

Apple Valley, say hello to Rosemount. Rosemount, meet Apple Valley. To better serve both communities, Patch is merging the sites covering Rosemount and Apple Valley.
