We want to make this course as accessible to everyone as possible, while also fairly compensating our instructors and staff.

Partial Scholarships

If you are not able to pay for the program at its full price, but can make a financial contribution, we offer partial scholarships. These scholarships bring the cost of the program down to $347 and are available to anyone in need. Click here to receive a partial scholarship to the Online Gardening School.

Full Scholarships

If you cannot afford a partial scholarship (see above), please apply for a full scholarship. We give out three kinds of full scholarships: one based on financial need; one for folks who plan to use this knowledge to benefit a larger community or organization (especially underserved communities); and one is a racial equity scholarship for African American and Native American students. The scholarship application can be found by clicking here.

The number of full scholarships we give out depends on the number of paying students who enroll. We will notify full scholarship recipients 1 week after the end of an enrollment period.

Please be patient as we process your application. We ask that you do not follow up on your application via email asking when/if you will get accepted.
