food from seeds in virtually any sunlit location Where to buy gardening equipment When to sow seeds & plant seedlings in Japan How to protect the environment How to boost food independence and increase

Harnessing Jon Walsh’s 6 years’ experience teaching urban farming and sustainability skills to 500+ students, teachers, parents and business people in Tokyo, this engaging presentation takes people outside their usual daily environments to experience a refreshing back-to-basics session about the core essentials of healthy living.

Attendees receive a rundown of the history of food production, learn how pesticides have changed the game, and find out 15+ practical ways – including home/office, rooftop, mobile and community gardens/farms – that individuals, companies and communities can utilize to take back control of food production, improve their health, and support the environment at the same time.

They will also discover how to maximize self-sufficiency, improve their health, boost disaster preparedness and fight climate change – simultaneously, at home, school and at work.

And there’s more. Attendees will also learn how food- and profit share-based CSR or community support programs can help – and feed – those in need, as well as how to set one up and promote it. Attendees are sure to leave massively inspired by how easy it is to help ourselves, support the environment and have a blast all at the same time.
