John Seymour (1914-2004), one of the founding fathers of the self-sufficiency movement, was an active campaigner for the countryside and advocate for a more sustainable, compassionate way of living. The author of over 40 books, his writing inspired thousands to go off-grid and influenced many more to re-evaluate their relationship with the planet. He practised what he preached, living a self-sufficient lifestyle on his farm in Wales, where he welcomed visitors seeking guidance on a more self-supporting life.
