Internships

The Woman's National Farm & Garden Association generously donates a minimum of $6200 to support an internship at the National Arboretum in Washington DC every year.

• Renaud-Peterson Arboretum Internship
  
  This internship goes to one student every year and is designated for work done at the Dogwood Gardens in the National Arboretum in Washington, DC.
  
  Through our internship program which the WNFGA has supported for many years, the USNA has offered hands-on horticultural training experience, educational opportunities and insight into public garden management to well over a hundred interns.
  
  Their web address is www.usna.usda.gov.
  
  
• The Frances Plate Bequest Fund
  
  This fund was inspired by Mrs. William B. Plate who, through her dedication, devotion and long service, 1930-1967, to the WNF&GA has received this special recognition.
  
  The WNF&GA donates $1000.00, each year, to the Student Conservation Association whose motto is "changing lives through service to nature". The SCA enrolled two thousand volunteers for service at over 400 parks in every one of our nation's fifty states.
