If you're serious I suggest you look into the israeli kibbutz movement. It has 100 years experience across 300 communes. Total turnover of all kibbutz businesses is currently about $10bn.
A lot of people have had the idea you have, starting a modern commune... a spectrum from Leo Tolstoy to charles manson. Very few were sustainable in the long term, or scalable. The Kibbutz movement was a rare example that was. Most are semi-privatized these days. A handful are still "traditional" (extreme) with no private property and children raised by the community instead of living with their parents.
