Queenstown, Maryland (November 22, 2021) – Not only does the Maryland Grain Producers have a new, easier scholarship application process, but they are also offering more scholarships and funding for the 2022-2023 school year!

In partnership with the National Corn Growers Association, students are now able to complete one online application and apply for both the state and national scholarships.
