They founded their first commune at Harmony, Pennsylvania, and the Harmony Society was formally organized in 1805. Three more communes/towns were founded and the society prospered until 1906. The Harmonite commune ultimately failed because the policy of celibacy prevented new members from within, and the majority of the outside world had no desire to give up so much to live in a commune. - Wikipedia
