The Douglas Dockery Thomas Fellowship in Garden History and Design aims to further the study of history and design in the American garden and to look to the future of gardens and their unique place in our environment. A student may propose a project of wide scope to assist with study and research at an institution in the United States. Project study should have wide scope, such as investigating new techniques of garden restoration; studying how small gardens created by community groups have impacted public gardens; exploring and documenting physical, emotional and spiritual healing properties of the garden; and instigating the development of gardens that use ecological and regenerative concepts, to name but a few possibilities. Two letters of recommendation are required, one must be a letter of endorsement from the applicant's faculty advisor that also certifies enrollment. Provide the e-mail address for each recommender and instructions will be sent to them. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
