Congratulations to the following winners of the 2010 Annual Scholarship Award.

  Ethnobotany.

The scholarships awarded totaled $3,000, an increase from previous years. In an attempt to go green, most of the colleges and universities were informed of this opportunity by email. This also helped us cut costs and increase the total award money.

Look for another scholarship opportunity again in the fall/winter of 2011. Information will again be available on our website.
