Coffee brews magikly each morning, the erection rises with such elixir, ready to provide all the joy you can handle. 


The Know Talent show promises to be our biggest show ever. 


Appearances expected by the great Shyanne, Peaches, Pinkie, Boy ricky has a brand new film to début, 












Dragon to offer up better than live Streisand, Two of three Erics plan separate numbers and perhaps one Jonathan will tickle to ivories, Ryan will tickle the ivories as well. 

And the dangling 'Fae one Claude' will perform in a magical number with two others including Chiplandia.

Then there is the daily dips in the river, the trek to the sauna, the return of drumming circles, processions to match the heart circles, and an art paint group project.





Workshops on cheese making, bread kneading, make up for the Butch and or Fem fae boys, much music and of course you can be as active as in you wish.   My my you could be a very busy faerie or you could watch. 




The Land aka Amber Fox is a place for gay and queer men. We come from all over Canada and the United States to attend gatherings. Join us in celebrating and giving to the land that sustains and nurtures our spirits and our lives. 

Canada Day Gathering Coming soon, Get it on your Mind!

It's one of the most fun gatherings for queer men in the Radical Faerie Tradition. Its popular with American and Canadian Fae ones as it falls on Canada Day and Independence Day. 

There will be daily dips in the river, saunas, heart circles, and the return of Fetish NIGHT! A really big Know Talent Show to go with the new awesome Tech stuff we have brought together.

Besides the usual crafty stuff you can share with others or pick up from others we await your ideas. Maybe a group art project.

The food is awesome and vegetarian. We cook communal meals, sit down and enjoy them together in the Erection. There is much fun to be had by all.

Our gatherings are getting bigger and more diverse. Look forward to seeing many others in a judgmental free space. You get to be you. If you like time alone, the land and area is beautiful in the summer. The Land provides many awesome places to be alone or together.

Of course the Gatherings at Amberfox are famous for among other things, the gourmet food and the ritualistic (Just plain Spectacular) fires and good people.

One Fae tradition is to dress (or not) in spectacular outfits. Remember, everyone at AmberFox is a star, so this is your chance to dress the part. Need help putting an outfit together? The Foxy Boutique is well stocked and plenty of boys will help you look the part. Boy drag, girl drag, animal drag, even tree or straight drag is cool. Then again, the less adornment one has, can often be the best. Its your call!

Its time to start planning. We provide free pick up at the bus in Perth or the train station in Smith Falls and we promise to get you back for your return bus or train. Just try to give us 12 hours notice, so we don't miss you!

We can also work to assist matching people up with rides from Toronto, Montreal and Ottawa.

We ask that you feed the Purse $25 per day. More if you can less if you can't. The land and facilities are made available by the owner and the Amberfox Faeries. Its only possible if the Purse does well.

Join us on Canada Day for rites of summer, AmberFox is a place for gay and queer men. We come from all over Canada and the United States to attend gatherings. Join us in celebrating and giving to the land that sustains and nurtures our spirits and our lives.

When Fae Boys get together

Can you see the procession after dusk on Saturday
Can you see the torches
can you hear the drums
Can you hear the chants
Can you feel the heart thumping

All that and more on the Victoria Day weekend Gathering

Gathering info for Victoria Day weekend

Coming to the Land for Victoria Day?  It looks like it will be very nice weather.  This is Ontario though so anything could happen.  You will want to be prepared.  Suggest you bring your tent, a foamie to sleep on, a good sleeping bag, warm clothes in case of chilly nights, something to keep the rain off should it dare drip on us, and of course what would spring be like without some flies and mosquitoes. It can be buggy and then maybe not.  (We do have some limited indoor space for those without a tent!)

It would be good to bring your choice of bug repellent.  You can minimize bug bites by showering, (we have a fabulous shower) do not use soaps or shampoos with smelly stuff.  Your sweat is like an elixir from the goddess for these flying creatures.

Our meals are all vegetarian. Not Vegan, though we could do that for some peeps.  Meals are prepared communally, so no need to bring ingredients, we will put together a list from menu ideas people have when they arrive.  If you have a recipe you like, bring a copy of it so we can put it in our collection of nummy eats. We ask for $25 per day.  That helps cover the cost of food, propane, insurance and upkeep.

If you play a musical instrument that you can carry, feel welcome to bring it.  The Know Talent Show could use your help!  If not up to that, playing music outside is awesome around the fire or anytime!

Need more info or directions, email me here .

Victoria Day Weekend - 2011

Its Victoria day weekend coming up!  Are we ready to welcome spring to the Land?  The Land is wide awake and as each day goes by we see more life leaping forward.  The trees are are almost leafed out, the grass is a rich green, flowers are beginning to bloom, and your queer selfs will surely bring it great pleasure.

The Victoria Day weekend will be the first Gathering of the year and it looks to be a great year on the land.  A big garden will be planted, the erection awaits to host the Know Talent Show.  The promise of great sustenance assures us we are the gourmet food gathering on the Fae circuit.

As usual there will be a ritual opening of thanks around a giant fire to cleanse the land and our spirits.  A Trek to the Maple Bush to remember those that left us.  A Know Talent Show, and I am sure a few encounters with the alien baby could be in order.

We have an erection project this year.  Its a place to meditate, to enjoy the peace, the bonding and what ever else one does with erections such as the Fae inspired ones that leap to mind.  Your input is desired.

This Victoria Day I am told that Geneva, Chiplandia and two secret acts will perform for us.  If you want to share your talents in the Know Talent Show, you would make us all so happy.  Bring your instruments, drums are great, your voice or enthusiasm.

The bunkhouse calls, the departure lounge welcomes, the sauna invites, the erection warms, the Land holds, Fae ones together, reuniting our tribe, inviting young and old, big and small, you and me and them too.

R U Coming? Lets us NO so we can plan! #Fae #Radialfaeries #AKAAMBERFOX #queer #Gay

Ricky and Issac pair up for Gender Bender Beltane

Boy Ricky and Perseid De Belle Rue will use the land for a Gender Inclusive event. Though not an Amber Fox Faerie gathering, all Fae ones are encouraged to join us for Beltane.  It will be vegetarian delights in the tradition of our fabulous culinary tradition. 

Beltane Celebrations fall on April 30th and May 1st, soon indeed! We all hope that you can join our circle at Amberfox and share in this historic gathering on the Land. Let's be honest- couldn't we all use a little more faerie magic in our lives? Winter is OVER, the land is waking up and it's time to shake some queer spirit (and booty).

Beltane is as old as the fracking hills and a radical faerie stand-by. Traditionally it's a celebration of Spring, fertility, good fortune and good harvests to come, though for those of us this far North it's also something of a victory party for Spring and life over our longest season by far, Winter. (Not that we're the only faeries partying- trust me.)

This will be the first time we celebrate Beltane at Amberfox and this weekend will be gender-inclusive. Those of gender queer bent are welcome. We are hoping for many visitors from near and far. Suggested donation is 25$ per day. That includes meals- delicious ones hand prepared and keeping up the land and its many facilities. It may be a bit chilly, but don't worry, the Land has enough infrastructure to keep everyone warm, and the bonfires will keep everyone toasty.

Beltane is known for it's great bonfires and fire-play, especially on the eve beforehand, and has countless manifestations and names, though most include fire in their festivities. April 30th there will be a bonfire party and purification of the cavity where the may pole will stand. Last there will be a Know Talent Show. The next day at noon, May 1st, we will have our Beltane ceremony and raise the maypole (oh yes, you know we weren't going to leave the cavity unfilled darlins').

If you wish to camp you are more than welcome to and there is plenty of space. The Land is beautiful and spacious and we hope to share it with you. : )

This is Ontario so you need to be ready for any kind of weather.  Bring warm clothes, a good sleeping bag, or a big quilt or blankets, a flash light, a change of clothes if its rainy and of course bring your happy clothing too.  You are welcome to wear any or no clothing, its Beltane after all.  The mosquito's might be interested in Beltane too but they are not always around.   We have many outfits for you in the Foxy Boutique if you can't bring your own.     

For more information on Beltane, you can visit the Radical Faerie website here

or the Wikipedia page here.

Get it on your mind. The final blast of the year on the Land - AKA Amberfox. Come help say good bye to the land before winter blankets the land. Expect awesome food, a big heart circle, fun and games as only we can! The sauna is ready, the Departure Lounge awaits your fae spirit and of course, one last kNOw Talent show for the year.

Hope you can make it. If your tent is too cool, there is room to bunk down in The Departure Lounge and the newly renovated bunkhouse and perhaps a few other nooks we can stuff you into.
