IFTA Young Professional Scholarship opportunity offered

The International Fruit Tree Association Young Professionals Scholarship Program was started in 2013 to encourage the next generation of fruit tree growers to attend the association’s educational events.

The first Young Professional Scholarships were awarded that year for the International Fruit Tree Association (IFTA) Study Tour in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. It was a great success, and IFTA is hopeful in supporting this program for many future events.

IFTA is currently procuring sponsor support to provide scholarships to Young Professionals who would like to attend the 2022 IFTA Annual Conference in Hershey, Pennsylvania, Feb. 12-15, 2022.

The IFTA Young Professionals Committee will also be coordinating the Welcome Reception in Pennsylvania.

Scholarship application and donation information can be found here.

Application Deadline:  Dec. 6, 2021
