The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Garden City, KS, is dedicated to cultivating a new generation of leaders in sustainable food systems by offering an empowering educational experience without tuition fees. This fellowship equips individuals with the knowledge and skills to advocate for a food system that prioritizes social, environmental, and economic justice. Through hands-on learning at the Allegheny Farm, Fellows engage in organic food system education, support local food initiatives, and promote healthy eating in their communities. They collaborate with various partners to grow diverse crops, maintain community gardens, and implement educational programs that enhance food and ecological literacy. The Fellowship includes a transformative six-month residency followed by a year of community action, during which participants apply their training in partnership with regional non-profits. Applications for this impactful program are accepted until March each year, with experiences running from May to October.
