A few years before the turn of the millennium, I took a year out before university, and spent some time travelling around the country (I'm from the UK) and working in exchange for board.
A lot of communes which had been established in the 1970s and 80s were still extant, and visiting was fascinating and an absolute blast. Few of them still remain, and those which do have distinctly toned down, moving from howling at the moon, orgone accumulators and three day sundances to straight ecological workshops. Bit of a shame, really.
