The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Newport, KY, offers a transformative opportunity for individuals passionate about creating a just and sustainable food system. Sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, this program empowers Fellows through immersive education in organic farming and community engagement. Participants benefit from hands-on training at the Allegheny Farm in Highland County, VA, without any tuition fees, ensuring accessibility for all. During the six-month residency, Fellows engage in diverse initiatives such as growing and distributing crops, implementing innovative health care programs, maintaining community gardens, and fostering food literacy in schools. Following their training, Fellows embark on a Community Action Year, collaborating with local non-profits to enhance access to healthy foods and support community food initiatives. Applications are accepted until March each year for a program that runs from May to October.
