Natural Annie Sustainable Scholarship in Agriculture

If you want a natural scholarship, then look into the Annie Sustainable Scholarship in Agriculture. You can’t get an organization that is more fully natural from A -Z then the Annie’s homegrown totally natural corporation in Napa CA. If you’re not into natural food products you would think that Annie’s goes overboard with their all natural food outlook, but they really don’t. They are just doing it right when it comes to preservation of our planet & how we grow our food today.

Annie’s have created a totally natural food growing standard that is being followed by more & more food growers today. Their core philosophy as Annie’s describe it is “Planet to Food. Food to People. People to Planet”. They believe that healthy soils and healthy farms are the foundation for healthy foods, which help make healthy people! I don’t think too many food lovers will argue with that approach.

Annie’s Sustainable Agriculture Scholarship program pays a whopping total of $50,000 a year for students who win which includes undergraduates as well as graduate students who apply as long as you are striving for a degree in ‘Sustainable and Organic Agriculture’. International students can apply if they are studying at a US College. Your application must be postmarked between July 15th and October 31st to qualify. If you’re a winner of this scholarship in agriculture you will be telephoned first, emailed second, and only by US mail if you don’t respond by the first two notifications because Annie’s consciousness on paper mail & trees destroyed. In fact; you must apply online first and email your application to apply to the Annie Sustainable Scholarship in Agriculture. You must complete & sign the application form along with the required personal statement and email them to: scholarships@annies.com. The personal statement you have to send in is your own perspective on sustainable agriculture. You will be asked also to write on your academic accomplishments & work experience too. By March 10th you will be notified if you win. Annie’s ask that you not call to find out because of the large number of calls they already receive. Along with the above you must send US mail (below) to them your official transcripts and (2) letters of recommendation from someone not related to you who can attest to your commitment on ‘Sustainable Agriculture’. Whoever writes this letter must sign, seal it & sign the seal in an already sealed envelope. For more information on go to Annie Sustainable Agriculture Scholarship Program.
