SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS
Our Scholarship Committee identifies and recommends students for scholarships.
There are usually two scholarships awarded
in the amount of $1,000 each.
Our scholarship is available to FALMOUTH RESIDENTS who are high school seniors, college students, and/or previous recipients planning to major or are majoring in HORTICULTURE, LANDSCAPE DESIGN, ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE, or RELATED FIELDS.
The Falmouth Garden Club awarded scholarships to two local graduates in 2022 Colin Bostwick and Madison Conn. Recipients of the club scholarships must be Falmouth residents studying agricultural education, botany, conservation, environmental studies, forestry, horticulture, land management, landscape design, plant pathology science or other related studies.
We were delighted to host our two recipients,Colin Bostwick and Madison Conn and their guests at our Annual Meeting and Scholarship Luncheon held at the Flying Bridge Restaurant on Monday, June 6th.
Colin will be a junior at Norwich University. He recently changed his major from Conservation Law Enforcement to Environmental Science. Madison is a recent graduate of Falmouth High School. She plans to study marine biology and environmental science. She sees herself as a life long learner and has plans to continue her studies into graduate school.
