    Answer: An intentional community

    Explanation: It was a community that was inspired by socialist ideas and as such Utopian. Founded by former Unitarian minister George Ripley from 1841 to 1847, it was an experiment on Ellis farm. The experiment is about proving that there can be a Utopian society where all members of society share everything so that they can all live better. The farm where the experiment took place was in Massachusetts and George Ripley himself a former Unitarian was a transcendentalist at the time of the experiment. Transcendentalism, along with Utopian ideas, was the ideological basis for this community, which emerged as a reaction to the existing state of intellectualism and spirit, especially in the eastern part of United States in the 1920's and 1930's. The complete farm name was Brook Farm Association for Industry and Education.
