The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Booneville, MS, empowers passionate individuals to become advocates for a food system that prioritizes social, environmental, and economic justice. Sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, this fellowship provides comprehensive organic food system education without imposing tuition fees, ensuring that all interested candidates have the opportunity to participate. During their six-month immersive experience at the Allegheny Farm, fellows engage in hands-on training that equips them to grow and distribute diverse crops, implement innovative educational programs in health care, maintain community gardens, and promote food literacy in schools. After the fellowship, participants embark on a Community Action Year, collaborating with regional non-profits to make a tangible impact. Applications are accepted until March each year, with the program traditionally running from May to October, paving the way for a more equitable food system in Mississippi and beyond.
