The Co-op believes in the future of Tennessee agriculture and is focused on contributing to the development of tomorrows agricultural leaders. Tennessee Farmers Cooperative is proud to salute the recipients of the 2007-2008 Co-op Scholarships.

These young people represent the best and the brightest in the future of Tennessee agriculture, and many of the former recipients are already making valuable contributions to our cooperative systems as farmers, Co-op employees and other AG related occupations.

Since 1995, TFC has offered 32 scholarships - each worth $1,500 - to qualified agriculture students at four state universities: UT Knoxville, UT Martin, Tennessee Tech, and Middle Tennessee State University.

In keeping with our valued heritage of supporting the youth of Tennessee agriculture, Co-op encourages high school seniors to visit with their guidance counselors and college students to ask their advisors about our yearly scholarships.

Applicants must be from families of Co-op members and satisfy the requirements set up by TFC's scholarship committee. For more information, call TFC Director of Education and Training Jeff Griggs at (615)793-8528 or email him at jgriggs@ourcoop.com
