Located in Columbia, KY, the Farm & Food Systems Fellowship empowers passionate individuals to become advocates for a fair, sustainable food system. Sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, this fellowship provides comprehensive training in organic agriculture, allowing Fellows to engage in practical, hands-on education. Through a six-month immersive experience at Allegheny Farm, participants learn how to cultivate and distribute diverse crops, implement innovative health-oriented educational programs, and engage with community gardens. The fellowship promotes food literacy and supports local farmers' markets and consumer initiatives, fostering connections that enhance access to healthy food. After their training, Fellows embark on a Community Action Year, partnering with regional non-profits to make a lasting impact. With no tuition fees, we prioritize accessibility, inviting you to apply by March each year for a transformative experience that runs from May to October.
