“The Beth Adriel Christian community is trying to live a religious life like Mennonites and Amish while eking out an existence on a long-idle 40-acre farm near Eatonville. Life is primitive and simple as community members rebuild farm buildings, tend animals, plow the land and pray.”

Communes were more common in the 1960s and 1970s. And although there were different kinds, what they had is common was a rejection of establishment.
