The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Virginia City, NV, is dedicated to nurturing a new generation of leaders committed to creating a just food system that prioritizes social, environmental, and economic equity. Sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, this inspiring Fellowship offers comprehensive hands-on training at the picturesque Allegheny Farm, where selected Fellows engage deeply in organic food system education. Through diverse initiatives, Fellows cultivate and distribute crops on a market-style farm, organize community gardens, implement innovative healthcare educational sessions, and foster food literacy in schools. Our program promotes accessibility by charging no tuition, ensuring that all passionate individuals can participate. During their six-month immersive experience, Fellows not only gain practical skills but also collaborate with regional non-profits during their Community Action Year, advancing vital community food coalition activities and supporting farmers markets that connect local producers to consumers. Applications are accepted until March, and the Fellowship experience typically unfolds from May to October.
