Ferns became the industry for Apopka in 1912 and soon Apopka became known as "Fern City". As more and more tropical plants were introduced to growers in the area, this influx of foliage took over the production of ferns and the City inherited the name of "The Indoor Foliage Capital of the World".

The City of Apopka is implementing a wireless network within the City limits. This wireless network, will provide Law Enforcement, Emergency Response Teams and all City Workers real time access to resources they need to provide the highest quality services to the citizens of Apopka. As an added bonus, this network will also allow citizens of the city access to broadband speed internet service.
