Scholarships
One of the primary missions of the Ellis County Master Gardeners is to build partnerships with the Ellis County community to expand horticultural education and opportunities. In keeping with this mission, the Ellis County Master Gardeners Association (ECMGA) will again make scholarship funds available in 2012 to deserving Ellis County high school seniors pursuing studies in horticulture related fields.
