Farm & Food Systems Fellowship

The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Ada, OK, empowers passionate individuals to become advocates for a food system that prioritizes social, environmental, and economic justice. This transformative program offers hands-on education in organic food systems without any tuition fees, ensuring accessibility for all interested Fellows. Throughout a six-month immersive experience at the Allegheny Farm Campus, participants engage in diverse initiatives such as growing and distributing crops, implementing health education sessions, and maintaining community gardens. Fellows also learn to integrate food and ecological literacy into educational settings, support local farmers markets, and develop distribution channels to enhance access to nutritious food. After their training, they embark on a Community Action Year, collaborating with regional non-profits to apply their skills and knowledge for greater impact in their communities. Applications are open until March each year, with experiences typically running from May to October.
