The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Atkinson, NE, nurtures the next generation of advocates and educators dedicated to fostering a just and sustainable food system. Our program, offered by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, provides a transformative six-month experiential training at our beautiful Allegheny Farm Campus, followed by a Community Action Year where Fellows collaborate with regional non-profit organizations. We prioritize accessibility by ensuring that admission to our program is tuition-free. Throughout the fellowship, participants gain hands-on experience in organic food systems, manage market-style farms, and engage in community-focused initiatives such as maintaining school gardens and supporting farmers markets. Our mission is to empower individuals to promote food and ecological literacy, hence creating healthier communities and increasing access to nutritious foods for all.
