Annie's Sustainable Agriculture Scholarship

Annie’s Sustainable Agriculture Scholarship Application. Sustainable and organic agriculture is at the heart of everything they do. That’s why each year they award scholarships to students through their Sustainable Agriculture Scholarship program. They're proud to support the next generation of farmers committed to sustainable farming practices by offering $100,000 in funds to students studying sustainable agriculture.

Annie’s Sustainable Agriculture Scholarship Program is open to full time undergraduate and graduate students studying at an accredited 2 or 4 year college or graduate school in the U.S. for the 2014/2015 school year. Students must be focusing studies on sustainable agriculture. International students may apply as long as they are studying at a U.S. school.

Annie’s accepts applications postmarked between October 1, 2013 and December 2nd 2013. If you are chosen to receive an award, you will be notified by April 15th, 2014, and funds will be dispersed directly to your school on or around July 15, 2014.

The application consists of two parts- your application and your supporting documents. Complete the application cover page, sign the form and draft a personal statement. Your supporting documents consist of an official copy of your transcript and two letters of recommendation from someone who can speak to your commitment to Sustainable Agriculture. The letters of recommendation must be from contacts that are NOT related to you. Letters of recommendation should be in a sealed envelope and the writer should sign the seal.
