D.G. Smith is a self-sufficiency advocate and the author of Sustainable Backyard Homesteading for Beginners and Herbs for Healing. Brought up on her grandparents’ farm in Thailand, Smith has always been passionate about gardening and sustainable food production, and it is this passion that fuels her writing. Her work aims to make self-sufficiency accessible to everyone, seeking to cast aside the all-or-nothing approach and help people make realistic changes to improve their lives within the context of modern life. Smith’s professional training is in the health sector, and she believes in a holistic approach to living well. She uses her gardening skills and ever-expanding knowledge of self-sufficiency to teach young adults how to integrate self-sufficiency principles into city life, and she is passionate about her work as a volunteer in this field. Her move away from the farming lifestyle as a child made her acutely aware of the difficulties faced by those living in the city, and she has spent a lot of time studying the best ways to make self-sufficiency possible in urban and suburban settings. Smith now lives in the suburbs of California with her husband and their teenage son, who is currently attending college. She views self-sufficiency as a journey, and continues to find small ways to bring her family closer to the ultimate goal of complete self-sufficiency while still benefiting from the many blessings city life has to offer.
