Victor, New York, USA
August 5, 2014

Joshua HenryBioWorks would like to congratulate Joshua Henry, as the recipient of the American Floral Endowment: "BioWorks IPM/Sustainable Practices Scholarship". Students were evaluated on the basis of sound academic performance and a grade point average of 3.0 or better.

Henry is a senior studying sustainable plant systems with a specialization in horticulture. His career goals include working in horticultural research and one day owning a greenhouse business. "I began volunteering in gardens over 10 years ago, and I have absolutely loved plants ever since," he said.

The BioWorks IPM/Sustainable Practices Scholarship is intended for sophomore, junior, or senior students pursuing a career in floriculture. While it is not mandatory, it is strongly desired that the student be interested in furthering the use of Integrated Pest Management ("IPM") or Sustainable practices and preference will be given in this area. BioWorks hopes to encourage young people to pursue a career in floriculture or horticulture and will support those pursuits with the scholarship.

BioWorks is an employee owned company that provides environmentally responsible, safe and effective solutions that serve horticulture, turfgrass and specialty agriculture professionals and consumers. BioWorks is a founding member of the BioPesticide Industry Alliance and also a proud sponsor of the AFE scholarship program, funding the 'BioWorks IPM/Sustainable Practices Scholarship'.
