Scott Brown Memorial
Seeds of Hope Award

“Scott not only planted seeds for a living, he planted
seeds of hope for the future.”

The Scott Brown Memorial Seeds of Hope Award is to be presented annually to an individual, organization or business that provides outstanding compassionate support to cancer patients and their families.

How the Award Got its Name
On April 2, 2005, Scott Brown, Vice President and Manager of Fruit and Vegetable Operations at Brown’s Orchard and Farm Market, lost his battle with cancer. During the summer of 2005, the Board of Directors for H.O.P.E. voted unanimously to create the Scott Brown Memorial Seeds of Hope Award in honor of Scott and the contributions made by the Brown Family to our community.

The Award's Symbolism
With an apple wood core taken from Brown's Orchards and placed between the polished aluminum stanchions, the award features a crystal dove in flight. The Dove, itself, is the symbol of H.O.P.E. The outstretched wings reminds us of John Gillespie Magee's "High Flight": Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth...and danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings...put out my hand and touched the face of God.
