Naked Week 2026
Honestly, the Naked Week just gone was an absolutely fabulous one.
Participants, both international and national, travelled to Autumn Farm to immerse themselves in the joy and camaraderie we have come to love here at Autumn Farm.
As the weather continued to improve during the week, clothes were shed to help release ourselves into an invigorating and rejuvenating South Island sun, often accompanied by laughter and the gentle refrain of musical notes from the house (thank you Gary for re-tuning our piano).
Every morning, after the daily camp meeting, participants were able to join a fitness class led by the incredibly fit Ken, as he whipped our bodies into a muscle toned frenzy! There was definitely a health and fitness theme running through the week, with these fitness classes accompanied by relaxation massage workshops held under the Jacaranda by Mark Ramsey. And there was even rock climbing - now how butch is that! Gavin and Grant were super at getting our boys up cliff edges, and then onto strenuous walks around our fantastically scenic Golden Bay. That's not to mention the cliff walking adventures down to the ever popular Dr's Beach! This was then harmoniously complimented by filling the wee things back up at the end of the day with one of Dave's gorgeous dinners and extravagant plum desserts...just how many ways can you eat a plum?
Our camp meetings this year were carried out by a rather Roman Triumvirate. Our volunteer John became our camp comandante, bringing us and the meeting into line. Peter, of course, brought the vital lessons for our well needed self development, and Mark Daly distributed the all important currency of Boy Bucks, recognising and encouraging us in kind acts during our stay together with our farm grown economy!
A huge thanks should also go to John for suggesting the rule of no showers before 9am. It resulted in greater amounts of hot water throughout the week, and was gratefully appreciated by everyone. What a success!
Towards the end of the week, we had a real go at destroying all health and fitness advances with a re-invigorated fully booked Hysterical Pub Convoy, which set off in the morning sun under the due care of our guide, Dave. We shot up to Farewell Spit to walk on the beach at the very top of South Island, before subsequent stops at various cafes, pubs and distilleries in the area. We visited the Old School House in Pakawau, the Collingwood Tavern, with picnicking by the sea, then onto the Mussel Inn in Onekaka, the Kiwi Spirit Distillery in Motupipi and ending up at The River Inn at the Port of Takaka. And as if that wasn't enough, that evening, after dinner, Glen organised a very entertaining Quiz Night to round off the day!
The whole week was tied up in a fabulous bow with the fetish auction and show. It was compared by duo-extraordinaire Mark Daly and Grant Sanderson, and guest celebrity the defrosted and vaguely necrotic megastar Lily Savage, utterly self-sacrificing by re-entering the non-frozen world and making the journey to the farm just in time to put us all in our place!
The fetish auction included rather a wide range of donations, from puppy slaves, mystery zucchini butt plugs, free night's gay stay accommodation and hand crafted pottery vases. The show itself had multiple stage performances, including Keith's lip-syncing, Pete's never heard before comedy repertoire, and it was brought to a magnificent visual climax with Earl's wonderful glowing balls!
As always, these event weeks would not run so well without the extra-ordinary help from our volunteers. This year we were assisted by John, Nigel, Kristopher, John, Dave and David.
We totally love and salute you!
Solar Fundraiser As you know, each year we commit to fundraising for an important large scale project for the farm (with previous successful campaigns including the Costume Department, Pool Cabana and the Swimming Pool), and this year we are saving up to go 100% solar energy generation via panels and batteries, to expand on the solar hot water heating system we've used since 1998. After the successful Summer Camp efforts, we continued with our fundraising campaign with a follow-up competitive Rummy-Kub Tournament coordinated by Grant Sanderson, and sexy tee-shirt printing by Gavin. Together with very generous donations, we have so far raised almost half our target and are currently at over $13,000. Thank you so much for your generous efforts and contributions! |
Cheers from Peter & Pete

You make, and take, from the news that which you wish to see and hear. You observe what you want and comment of things that affect you personally. If you don't like something, do not read it and move on but do not shy away from what IS going on in the world of which - you are a part. World news is so easy to find these days and differing opinions not hard to find. Having an opinion is vital and being a ' don't care' person helps no one. So open your mind - open your heart - open your awareness and ALWAYS be open to new ideas.
