The Woodinville Garden Club is funding two $2250 scholarships, The Founder's Scholarship and the The Memorial Scholarship. 

We are pleased to announce that a donation of $500 was given to the Club by Ron Alessandrini and Mike Osterling to augment our usual scholarship budget.  Regular "Tour of Gardens" patrons may recognize their names as their garden was one of the featured properties on our 2012 tour.  We appreciate their contribution and commitment to furthering horticultural education.

Scholarship Use: The scholarship must be used at a two- or four-year accredited college or university or an accredited trade school within the academic year following receipt of the scholarship. It may be used for tuition and/or fees.

Selection Criteria: All applicants will be judged on:
