There were approximately 25 Utopian communities across the United States, most of which were founded in the mid-to late 1800's. Fountaingrove, just to the NorthWest of Santa Rosa, California, was one of the successful ones, and it was the fourth one begun by Thomas Lake Harris. Three were in New York state and the last in California. Harris's lieutenant here in California was a Japanese man named Nagasawa. he came to California by way of Hong Kong and he oversaw quite a great operation at Fountaingrove. A winery was established and it was very successful, even though the Utopian community folded. At it's peak there were over 300 people in residence. Anyway, they had three big houses, all of which burned down, a blacksmith shop, a winery operation, and even a piggery. It was this site we hoped to detect today.
