Listen "Episode 66 with Sonomi Obinata, Biodynamic Farmer and Creator of the Dandelion Festival "
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we sit down with Sonomi Obinata, a biodynamic farmer and the visionary behind the Dandelion Festival. Sonomi takes us on a journey through her rich heritage in Japan, reminiscing about her formative years in Kanagawa Prefecture on her grandfather's farm. We chat about her childhood, her early passions, and her time in cosmetology school in Japan. Then, alongside her husband, she took a leap of faith and moved to New York City in the early 2000s, where she carved out a niche as a make-up artist in the bustling fashion world, working with some of the industry's big names.
Our conversation meanders to the North Fork, where Sonomi's deep-seated love for biodynamic farming took root, especially after the 2011 earthquake and Fukushima nuclear disaster back home. We dive into the creation of the Dandelion Festival at KK's Farm and Sonomi’s hopes for the future of the community.
