The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in York, NE empowers individuals to become educators and advocates for a just food system through a transformative training program. This Fellowship, sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, emphasizes socially, environmentally, and economically sustainable practices. Fellows engage in hands-on organic food system education, enabling them to grow and distribute diverse crops on a market-style farm, implement innovative health care educational sessions, and maintain thriving school and community gardens. Participants are also instrumental in teaching food and ecological literacy within educational settings, supporting farmers markets, and enhancing access to healthy food through robust distribution channels. This immersive six-month experience culminates in a Community Action Year, where Fellows actively apply their skills by collaborating with regional non-profit organizations. With an emphasis on accessibility, AMI ensures that there are no tuition fees associated with the Fellowship, making this vital training experience available to all who wish to contribute to a healthier food ecosystem. Applications are welcomed until March each year, with the Fellowship running from May to October.
