2019 The Katharine M. Grosscup Scholarships in Horticulture

Marissa Lamp is pursuing a degree in greenhouse management at the Agricultural Technical Institute of The Ohio State University. She managed a local greenhouse on her own through an independent study project with the FFA (Future Farmers of America) organization. Lamp continued her research through her college courses, working at OSU’s research greenhouses in Wooster, OH, and independent projects. Last year she won third place in Nursery Operations at the Ohio State FFA Convention and will compete as a  nalist again this year. Her passion for horticulture inspires her to eventually own a greenhouse and garden
center that focuses on educating the community.
