The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship, based in Chester, WV, provides a transformative opportunity for individuals committed to fostering a just and sustainable food system. Sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, this dynamic program offers hands-on training and mentorship, equipping Fellows to become advocates and educators in organic food systems. Participants engage in a six-month immersive experience at the Allegheny Farm Campus, where they learn to grow and distribute diverse crops, implement innovative health education initiatives, and promote food and ecological literacy in schools and communities. This Fellowship is designed with accessibility in mind, as there are no tuition fees, ensuring that all dedicated individuals can pursue this vital work. Following their training, Fellows undertake a Community Action Year, collaborating with regional non-profits to enhance local food initiatives, support farmers markets, develop distribution channels for healthy foods, and empower future generations through mentorship. Applications are accepted until March, with program activities taking place from May to October.
