Located in Chester, VT, the Farm & Food Systems Fellowship, sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, is dedicated to empowering passionate individuals to become advocates for a just food system. Through comprehensive organic food system education and hands-on training, this fellowship fosters the next generation of leaders committed to social, environmental, and economic equity in food systems. Fellows engage in a transformative six-month experiential program at our Allegheny Farm Campus, where they learn to grow diverse crops, maintain community gardens, and implement innovative health care education. This program also supports initiatives like farmers markets and direct-to-consumer distribution, enhancing access to healthy foods for all. By working closely with regional non-profit organizations during their Community Action Year, Fellows apply their knowledge and skills, enriching their communities while encouraging food and ecological literacy. Apply by March and join us in this vital mission from May to October.
