The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Shelton, WA, is dedicated to fostering leaders who advocate for a food system that prioritizes social, environmental, and economic justice. Our program offers a tuition-free pathway for passionate individuals to delve into organic food system education and hands-on experiences. Fellows engage in diverse initiatives including growing and distributing crops through market-style farming, facilitating innovative health education sessions, and cultivating school and community gardens. We emphasize the vital connection between food and ecological literacy, aiming to enhance access to healthy foods through farmers markets and direct-to-consumer programs. Over a six-month residential fellowship at our Allegheny Farm Campus, participants gain practical knowledge, followed by a Community Action Year where they apply their skills in collaboration with local non-profit organizations. Join us in our mission to create a more equitable food system and empower communities through education and sustainable practices.
