The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Montpelier, VT, empowers aspiring advocates to create a socially, environmentally, and economically just food system. Sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, this tuition-free program offers comprehensive organic food system education, providing Fellows with hands-on experience at the Allegheny Farm. Participants engage in activities such as growing and distributing diverse crops, conducting educational sessions on innovative healthcare, and maintaining community gardens. The Fellowship emphasizes food and ecological literacy within schools, supports farmers markets, and fosters direct access to healthy foods through the development of distribution channels. Over six months of immersive learning, followed by a year of community action, selected Fellows collaborate with regional non-profits, effectively translating their training into tangible benefits for local communities. Applications are accepted until March each year, with the program running from May to October.
