A Celebration of the First Day of Summer and the Longest Day of the Year

June 21st is our second annual World Tentsile Day where we celebrate our Community and invite everyone with a Tentsile to join us from wherever they are in the world to head outdoors on the longest day of the year and soak up the great outdoors and all the benefits it has to offer.

This year we celebrated our 9th birthday, as well as launched our first ground tent, the LUNA and most recently our Ocean range, made from reclaimed ocean plastic. We’ve been on an incredible journey so far and we only have you, our customers to thank.

One thing that has remained constant and is at the heart of everything we do is sustainability. Nine years ago, when we first started Tentsile, it was our vision not only to help rebuild the worlds tree population in heavily deforested areas, but to ensure we tread more lightly on our earth. While there is always more to do, we have come a long way – you can read about what Tentsile have been doing to help fight the climate crisis fight here.

We’re doubling the number trees we plant for World Tentsile Day

So far, we have helped to plant over 912,000 trees (we plant 20 trees for every tree tent and hammock you purchase) with our tree planting partners Eden Projects and WeForest. And for World Tentsile Day we’re going to double our pledge – that’s right, we’ll be planting 40 trees for every purchase you make on the longest day of the year. What are waiting for…get shopping (20% off most tree tents and hammocks during June)!
