Robyn Natsuko Shinozaki is the founder of Green Neighbors, a social enterprise reimagining how cities grow food, foster connection, and promote sustainable living. Drawing on her multicultural upbringing in Japan and Singapore, Robyn blends urban farming with community engagement to transform underused city spaces into thriving green ecosystems. In this episode, Robyn shares her journey from growing up between two cultures to launching Green Neighbors in Tokyo - a grassroots movement that brings people together through foodscaping, sustainability workshops, and local agriculture. We dive into the challenges of introducing new environmental ideas in Japan, the power of community collaboration, and how urban farming can shift not only landscapes but also mindsets. Robyn also reflects on the lessons she’s learned as a social entrepreneur, her vision for scaling Green Neighbors, and how food can be a powerful tool for connection and climate action. Join us for an inspiring conversation about green cities, social impact, and the future of food in urban life.   Highlights: 00:00 Introduction to Robyn's Journey 05:10 Roots and Early Influences 09:09 Inspiration from Singapore's Urban Farming 15:27 Starting Green Neighbors 21:05 Challenges in the Japanese Market 27:55 Community Engagement and Workshops 33:25 Impact on Local Communities 39:00 Future Vision for Green Neighbors 43:14 Lessons Learned and Advice 54:02 Conclusion and Contact Information   Follow Robyn and her team at Green Neighbors here: https://www.greennbs.com Follow the Green Neighbors Instagram accounts here: https://www.instagram.com/greenneighbors.co/
