Sounds like it's in one of those areas over by Eliza Howell Park. Perhaps Grayfield St.?

Love the name. You can't help but look. And they look like quite unique people following their own vision. Obviously it takes a lot of daily energy to make a thing like that work.

I've always associated Brightmoor with whites.

I'm currently staying at Knuckle Head Farm. I found out about it through WWOOF.org [[WorldWide Opportunities for Organic Farmers). It's a beautiful place to be. Riet and Mark Schumack are community activists and all-around great people. Riet runs a community youth market garden and is involved in countless projects. Feel free to ask me anything.

Yup! The property backs up to the Rouge River and beyond that is Eliza Howell. A perfect location, really.

They have a Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/KnuckleHeadFarm

Here's what the proprietor says:
"We have just one room with a private bathroom. We are open all year. We have no website but we are listed on Airbnb where most of our bookings come from."
