Bio: Meet Daniel A. Hart, an ex-Amish writer and advocate for sustainable living. Daniel grew up in an Amish community in Iowa, where he developed a deep appreciation for simple living. He lived with his parents and 11 siblings on a farm without electricity, running water, heating, air conditioning and many other common amenities people outside the community are used to. They grew their own food in the gardens and crops in the fields. They raised a variety of animals both for labor as well as for food consumption. There were no vehicles, horse and buggy was the mode of transportation. After leaving the Amish community and traveling the country, Daniel has become a leading voice in the sustainable living movement.
