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.
