Springfield Garden Club is accepting applications for its 2026 scholarship. Eligible students include graduating seniors who are attending one of the following high schools: Springfield, Green Mountain Union, Windsor and Bellows Falls Union.

Students in these districts who are being homeschooled are also invited to apply, as are previous scholarship winners.

To be considered, students should be studying Forestry, Horticulture, Landscape Design, Natural Sciences, Environmental Studies or related fields. Further education can include a 2- or 4-year college/university/technical college or a certification or internship program.
