Grandma Junko was born and raised in Nagoya, where she nurtured her passion for healthy Japanese cooking. She turned this passion into a bricks and mortar natural food store, later moving into the teaching realm by running a healthy cake and natural yeast bread cooking class. A licensed cook with generations worth of wisdom under her belt, Grandma Junko’s mission is simple: to share her love for nourishing food and healthy Japanese cooking!
