AFE accepting applications for floriculture/horticulture internships
The American Floral Endowment (AFE) has opened application for two of its paid floriculture/horticulture internship programs: the Vic & Margaret Ball Intern Scholarship and the Mosmiller Intern Scholarship.
“This internship was remarkably beneficial for my future education and career plans,” Jaclyn Reding, one of last year’s interns, said. “Working as an intern taught me more in a few weeks than my years of college courses on the same topics.”
Vic & Margaret Ball Intern Scholarship Program
The Vic & Margaret Ball Intern Scholarship Program provides the opportunity to gain experience at a commercial production greenhouse or nursery. The program offers paid internships in three-, four-, or six-month durations and provides scholarships of up to $6,000.
In addition, faculty are reimbursed up to $1,000 in travel expenses to visit students at their internship sites.
Mosmiller Intern Scholarship Program
The Mosmiller Intern Scholarship Program provides students pursuing a career in retail or wholesale operations with internship experience and honors the late Colonel and Mrs. Walter E. Mosmiller, Jr. The program offers paid internships in 10-16 week durations and provides scholarships of $2,000.
Applications are due Oct. 1. For more information, visit endowment.org/internships.
