The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship, based in Cheney, WA, is dedicated to nurturing the next generation of advocates for a just and sustainable food system. Our program empowers Fellows through comprehensive training in organic food systems, focusing on social, environmental, and economic justice. Offering tuition-free education, we ensure accessibility for all aspiring change-makers. Throughout the six-month immersive experience at our Allegheny Farm Campus, participants engage in hands-on learning while collaborating with local non-profits to grow diversified crops, implement health-focused educational sessions, maintain community gardens, and enhance food literacy in schools. After their fellowship, Fellows embark on a Community Action Year, applying their skills to support farmers markets, develop distribution channels for healthy foods, and foster community food coalition initiatives. Applications are welcomed until March each year, with experiential learning occurring from May to October.
