Can a moon druid cast find familiar from a scroll? To use a scroll i think the spell has to be on your spell list. Technically it is not on the druid spell list, but the wild companion feature allows you to "cast the find familiar spell, without material components". Is that sufficient for use of the scroll?
I'd say Rules As Written it's a no, since it's not the druid spell list. But it's very much "ask your DM" territory, as they may want to allow it, especially since scrolls are single-use anyway.

Former D&D Beyond Customer of six years: With the axing of piecemeal purchasing, lack of meaningful development, and toxic moderation the site isn't worth paying for anymore. I remain a free user only until my groups are done migrating from DDB, and if necessary D&D, after which I'm done. There are better systems owned by better companies out there.

The wild companion is of limited duration has a shorter casting time and does not require components so is different to the usual casting of find familiar. This means their is less of a case to allow it than a spell you can cast from a feat or racial feature.
My druid has fet touched if we find a scroll of misty step I will ask the dm if I can use it but RAW says no.

I agree with Haravikk.

A druid could take the Magic Initiate (Wizard) feat, which gives the druid access to find familiar
