The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Ellisville, MS, is dedicated to fostering a sustainable and equitable food system through hands-on education and community engagement. This transformative program offers aspiring advocates the opportunity to deepen their knowledge of organic farming practices while gaining practical experience in promoting social, environmental, and economic justice within the food sector. Selected Fellows participate in an immersive six-month curriculum at the Allegheny Farm Campus, which equips them with the skills to grow and distribute healthy, diversified crops, implement community gardens, and engage in vital food literacy initiatives. By collaborating with regional non-profits, our Fellows not only strengthen local food systems but also enhance access to nutritious food options for all. The application process is open until March each year, with the Fellowship experience running from May through October, ensuring that all interested candidates have equal opportunities to join our mission of cultivating community resilience and well-being through food assistance and education.
