Brook farm Association.
The Brook Farm project originated with George Ripley, a prominent humanitarian of Boston, and Dr. William H. Channing.
The original plan was to make of it a religious and literary community, supported by joint labor of its members on a farm which was the common property of all. All were to live simply, and, as the hours of labor were brief, abundant leisure was to be secured for social and intellectual intercourse.
All the members of the community were to be stock to advocacy of Fourierism.
It also instituted a missionary society and a lecturing system.
Its members, with some outside sympathizers, formed an organization, the American Union of Associationists, the two foremost workers in which were William H. Channing and Charles A. Dana, and eloquent appeals in the form of circulars were sent out, urging the formation of similar societies all over the country.
A number of these were formed, but, unfortunately, nearly all were failures.
