The 2021 Milton Garden Club High School Scholarship in memory of Herbert H. Flickinger was awarded to Evan Short of Laurel High School. Evan will be attending Clemson University where he intends to major in Agribusiness. As an eight-year-old, Evan’s grandfather helped him build a small produce stand and Little Evan’s Produce was born. In his short time in farming, Evan has learned that farming is full of challenges and is a thankless business that not many people want to do anymore. Evan is the future of farming and hopes to keep agriculture alive in Delaware.
