About Farm & Food Systems Fellowship

The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship based in Pooler, GA, is dedicated to nurturing the next generation of leaders in sustainable agriculture and food justice. This innovative program empowers selected Fellows through comprehensive training that emphasizes the importance of a food system that is socially, environmentally, and economically just. Over six months of immersive, hands-on learning at the Allegheny Farm in Highland County, VA, Fellows gain vital knowledge in organic food systems, while engaging with community partners to grow diversified crops, maintain gardens, and implement educational initiatives that promote food and ecological literacy. This fellowship not only eliminates tuition fees to enhance accessibility but also supports initiatives like farmers markets and direct-to-consumer programs, fostering increased access to healthy foods in the community. After their training, Fellows embark on a Community Action Year, applying their skills in collaboration with regional non-profit organizations to make a tangible impact. Applications are accepted until March, with the fellowship experience taking place from May to October.
