Farm & Food Systems Fellowship

The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Neodesha, KS, is dedicated to fostering a new generation of advocates for a just and sustainable food system. This immersive fellowship empowers participants with hands-on training in organic agriculture and community-focused initiatives, aiming to promote social, environmental, and economic justice through food. Fellows engage in activities such as growing and distributing diversified crops, conducting educational sessions for innovative healthcare, and integrating food and ecological literacy in schools. By supporting community gardens, farmers markets, and direct-to-consumer programs, fellows develop essential skills to enhance access to healthy foods and mentor future leaders. With no tuition fees, the fellowship ensures that accessibility is at the forefront of its mission. Selected participants enjoy a six-month residency at AMI's farm campus, followed by a year of impactful community action with regional nonprofit partners, making a meaningful difference in the lives of those around them. Applications are accepted until March each year, with the fellowship experience running from May to October.
