Farm & Food Systems Fellowship

The Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Atoka, OK, is dedicated to nurturing the next generation of advocates for a just food system that encompasses social, environmental, and economic fairness. This innovative fellowship, sponsored by the Allegheny Mountain Institute, offers an immersive six-month experiential program at the Allegheny Farm, where selected fellows engage in organic food system education while developing skills in diversified crop cultivation, community gardening, and food literacy. By collaborating with local partners, fellows implement health education initiatives, support farmers markets, and create distribution channels that enhance access to nutritious foods. Our commitment to accessibility means we do not charge tuition for this transformative experience, and we encourage applicants to submit their applications by March each year for a program that typically runs from May to October. Join us in building resilient food systems and making a meaningful impact in communities.
