Deepen your relationship with the land, Jewish wisdom, and yourself through Living Tree Alliance’s Village-Building Fellowship. This immersive two-week experience is designed for young adults ages 21–28 who feel called to explore the connections between Judaism, regenerative farming, and earth-based community living.
Join us in the heart of Vermont’s beautiful Mad River Valley as we harvest from our regenerative farm, learn food-preservation practices, and support youth through place-based education. Fellows will participate in hands-on workshops exploring the rhythms of the Jewish calendar alongside the New England seasons, discovering how ancestral wisdom can guide modern, grounded living.
 Between farm projects, workshops,, hiking, biking, and time for reflection, participants will experience an intentional way of living rooted in gratitude and reciprocity.
Fellows will also take part in our 13th Annual Sukkot on the Farm Festival (Sept. 25-26), celebrating the Jewish harvest festival through farming, ritual, music, learning, and community gathering—honoring the abundance of the season and what it means to build sacred culture together.
Apply to Join us - September 18 - October 2 - Applications due by Sept. 1
