About the ScholarshipUnder Idaho State Code, the Idaho Grape Growers and Wine Producers Commission is charged with encouraging the planting and development of native vineyards and the production of wines from grapes, fruits and berries grown in Idaho. The Idaho Wine Education Scholarship will further that goal by assisting with the education of individuals interested in Idaho viticulture and enology. It is the Commission’s hope that in turn, selected applicants will use the knowledge obtained to participate in the growth of the Idaho wine industry.
The Idaho Wine Education Scholarship may be used to further the recipient’s education in viticulture and enology by means of an educational seminar, trade school, or 4-year accredited college. The use of the scholarship funds must be in relation to viticulture or enology in some aspect.
