The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Phillipsburg, NJ, is dedicated to cultivating a new generation of advocates and teachers committed to creating a just and sustainable food system. Sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, this fellowship offers a unique six-month, experiential learning opportunity at the Allegheny Farm in Highland County, VA, where Fellows receive comprehensive training in organic food systems. The program promotes accessibility by waiving tuition fees, ensuring that aspiring leaders can focus on meaningful community impact. Throughout their journey, Fellows engage in initiatives such as growing and distributing diverse crops, implementing health-focused educational sessions, maintaining school and community gardens, and enhancing food literacy in education. After their intensive training, they embark on a Community Action Year, collaborating with local non-profits to apply their learning and expand access to healthy food options. Interested individuals can apply by March each year, with the fellowship experience typically running from May to October.
