At the Farm & Food Systems Fellowship in Stephens City, VA, we are dedicated to empowering individuals to become impactful advocates for a just and sustainable food system. Through our unique program, we provide comprehensive education in organic food systems, allowing our Fellows to engage in hands-on experiences at the Allegheny Farm in Highland County. With a commitment to accessibility, we proudly offer this training without tuition costs, ensuring that our Fellowship is open to all passionate individuals. Throughout their six-month residency, selected Fellows will develop skills in growing and distributing diversified crops, leading innovative health education sessions, and supporting local community initiatives such as school gardens, farmers markets, and food coalitions. Our focus on ecological and food literacy helps reinforce critical partnerships with regional non-profits during the subsequent Community Action Year. Join us in fostering a healthier, more equitable food future where every community member has access to nutritious food.
