    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'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.

    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."
