Who We Are
Core values
Queerness: We reject societal norms and expectations around gender and sexuality. Peach Please is a community for a diverse set of gender identities and sexualities and we want everyone to feel comfortable here being themselves. There is no pressure for anyone to conform to any expectations for their perceived gender or orientation. This also doesn't mean cis straight people are not welcome, but they need to keep in mind that they are not the majority here and to respect the space in that spirit.
Sex-positivity: Peach Please fosters a space for people to express their sexuality without judgement or shame. And to do so however and as much as they desire, as long as it's between consenting adults! Consent must always be at the heart of any healthy sexual interaction, and that means no pressure to be sexual, either.
What we build
We bring a space to the field of dirt for workshops in the daytime and social and sexual gatherings at night. Yes this means an orgy space and cruising area! We also build a shaded chill space for the queers to hang out.
What you can expect from us
If you join us you will be provided food (always built around a complete and nourishing plant-based meal), water, a shower to put said water into, shade, a chill space, a workshop and play space. And a new lovely queer family of up to 30 people.
What we expect from you
Active participation. We're still getting established and we need all the hands we can get. If you're ready to step up, you can help build the Peach Please you want to see. From spreadsheet wizards to shit ninjas, breakfast cooks to play space guardians, come with your passion and make the role you want to be! There is also a camp fee, but we try to keep it low and apply a sliding scale to remain accessible to everyone.
How we got here
The founding Peach Please team was drawn together after Nowhere 2023 by the dream of making a queer sex-positive barrio, a space that they had felt was missing from their Nowhere experience. We spent the year preparing and the first edition of Peach Please at Nowhere in 2024 was everything we imagined and more.
At Nowhere 2024 we built a modest space that was used for both workshops and orgies. We had 18 camp members from all over Europe and around the world – France, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, the US, the UK, Ireland, Czechia and even New Zealand. We made a lovely little community supporting each other and bringing the barrio to fruition.
And we plan on building from there! This year we're hoping to make our spaces bigger and better. We are also aiming to add programming that is more social in nature, to bring the queer community together in a way that is not solely about sex. And we had a disproportionate amount of peaches using he/him pronouns and we are trying to have a more diverse set of gender identities going forward.
