Tentsile celebrates International day of Forests by planting 30,000 trees!

The United Nations General Assembly proclaimed March 21st the International Day of Forests back in 2012 in order to celebrate and raise awareness of the importance of all types of forests. With 10 million hectares lost annually to deforestation and approximately 70 million hectares affected by fires, tree-planting efforts are more important than ever.

Since launching Camp Wild, more than 75 Wild Spaces have become available and the awe-inspiring network is growing every week. The environments and landscapes are unique and truly varied, and include everything from an Atlantic rainforest, wildflower meadows and working farms, to country estates and dense woodlands, with many offering access to beautiful waterfalls, lakes or streams, to name just a few.

Green Friday – Turning Black Friday Green

In the chaos of Black Friday we wanted to remind everyone that you can shop more positively, and how here at Tentsile we invest in worthwhile causes and try to give back where we can. We are an independent, family-owned business who strive to tread more lightly on Earth and encourage everyone else to do the same.

We encourage you all to get out as much as you can and experience the joy of nature as well as spending quality time with friends and family.

Tentsile Reaches Goal of Planting 1 Million Trees!

Tentsile Reaches Goal of Planting 1 Million Trees!

We are absolutely thrilled to share the incredible news that Tentsile have now reached our target of planting 1 Million trees in 10 years, with our tree planting partners! Protecting and preserving the World’s forests has always been at the very heart of everything we do here at Tentsile. We don’t plant trees so that we can sell more Gear – in fact it’s the exact opposite – we sell tents so that we can plant as many trees as possible. Simple.

Happy 10th Birthday Tentsile!

Happy 10th Birthday Tentsile!

We’re celebrating 10 wonderful years of Tentsile! And what an incredible adventure it has been. We could not be prouder of what we’ve achieved this past decade. From our first gigantic prototype, hand stitched in our Founder’s living room, to the entire range of suspended Tree Tents and Giant Hammocks we have now - we’ve come very a long way!

World Environment Day - #OnlyOneEarth

50 years on we’re still fighting for #OnlyOneEarth and for transformative action on a global scale. We’re fighting to protect and restore our planet. And while our individual consumption habits do make a difference, what we really need is collective action on a global scale.

Sumatran Orangutan Society: Save Our Orangutans

For Green Friday 2018, Tentsile helped SOS raise funds to buy an 890-acre piece of land in Sumatra. This land runs alongside primary forest in the Leuser Ecosystem, the last place on Earth where orangutans, elephants, rhinos and tigers still coexist in the wild.

Tentsile Tree Tents' Activism in the Tasmanian Rainforest

Tentsile Tree Tents' Activism in the Tasmanian Rainforest

Earlier this year, the Big Canopy Campout saw hundreds of people and organisations take to the trees this September, sleeping out in forests around the globe to raise funds for vital conservation work. One such group is the Bob Brown Foundation, who got in touch with Tentsile to ask for some Tree Tents to help fight deforestation on the front line. Of course, we were more than happy to join their plight – saving trees is what we do best. Hear from Erik Hayward - CEO of the Bob Brown Foundation - as he explains what’s happening in the Tarkine Forests of Tasmania.
