In today’s Globe & Mail, Ian Brown talks about having a “Naked lunch – and naked breakfast“ at the Bare Bistro at Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park. You can read the article online by clicking here. Nobody at Bare Oaks had any idea that a Globe & Mail reporter had been there. He simply checked into one of the rooms like everyone else and didn’t tell anybody why he was there. Which is fine, of course, since we treat all our guest with equal respect. It’s just more useful for reporters to identify themselves if they want to spend some time discussing the philosophy ofRead More →

Well over 100 people participated in the 7th World Naked Bike Ride in Toronto yesterday. The weather was grey and cool but none of that kept participants from stripping and riding. Thankfully, the rain held off until the last five minutes of the ride. The group included a significant contingent from Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park.

Being nude is the best way (and the most natural way) to maximize vitamin D production. The more skin we expose to the sun the more vitamin D is synthesized. According to Dr. Michael Holick, when we make vitamin D in the skin, it last 2-3 time longer in the body than supplements & dietary sources.  So we are now carrying Dr. Holick’s new book, The Vitamin D Solution, in the Bare Boutique at Bare Oaks.  There has been an enormous amount of information in recent years about the importance of the “sunshine vitamin” on our health. Research studies have suggested that it helps us fightRead More →
