Four earn B. H. “Brodie” Harrell Agricultural Scholarship

JACKSON – Brodie Harrell was recognized by his superiors in Raleigh, his coworkers across the state, and the people of Northampton County as one of the top Extension Agents in North Carolina.

In his memory, coworkers, family and friends created the B. H. “Brodie” Harrell Agricultural Scholarship. The scholarship is available to youth from Northampton County who are pursuing higher education beyond high school level and concentrating in studies related to agriculture and natural resources.
