PHOTOJOURNAL OF GCA SCHOLAR'S TIME IN THE NEBRASKA SANDHILLS

CONSERVATION, photographyWendy Russell

GCA Scholar Eric Schwartz spent time in Nebraska, an area ravaged by the Dust Bowl in the early 1930s. Eric, a 2024 Moore Family Fellow in the Making of the American Landscape, was there to study the New Deal-era Prairie States Forestry Project, which planted 200 millions trees in an effort to restore and improve the devastated land. This photo essay serves as a reminder that our association with GCA extends far beyond our garden club and all the way around the world!  The GCA distributed almost $460,000 in scholarships in fiscal year 2024 and $402,000 in 2023.
