Jon Walsh, urban farmer, teacher, and change-maker living in Tokyo, Japan, shares his remarkable journey from New Zealand to Japan, and how a tsunami, a tomato plant, and a mission to feed others sparked a whole movement.
We dive into:
- How gardening can be simple—even in small urban spaces
- What makes Japan’s food culture so healthy (just 4% obesity!)
- Jon’s “Grow Some, Give Some” model that helps fight food insecurity
- The power of school gardens to teach kids lifelong skills
- Why rooftops might be the next great frontier in food production
- How gardening connects people, builds trust, and strengthens communities
- And why, if you can brush your teeth, you can grow food.
This episode is a hopeful, practical look at how growing food—even in a flower pot—can create healthier people, communities, and cities. Whether you’ve got a backyard, a balcony, or just a bowl on a windowsill, Jon will inspire you to get your hands in the dirt.
