The Exhibition Association of Nova Scotia has released its 2026 scholarship application form to help students in Antigonish, Nova Scotia. This program is designed to provide financial support for young people who are heading to college or university for their post-secondary education.
To be eligible, students must be involved in agricultural societies or youth agricultural clubs. This includes those who participate in the Eastern Nova Scotia Exhibition, which is a major community event for local families.
These exhibitions are important because they help residents learn more about local farming and agriculture. They also bring economic benefits to the towns that host them by bringing in visitors and supporting local business owners.
The scholarship program is part of a provincial effort to support the next generation of people involved in agricultural events. The application forms for the 2026 awards are now available for interested students to complete.
