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.

National Parks: A guide on how to plan a camping trip to a National Park

Labor Day weekend is almost here, and if you're like me, you're looking for a fun way to celebrate the end of summer. I'm not normally a fan of crowds—I'd much rather spend time alone in the woods under the stars than at a crowded beach or park.

Tentsile Plants a Million Trees #BecomeOneOfTheMillion

Tentsile Plants a Million Trees #BecomeOneOfTheMillion

In 2017, we set ourselves the challenge to plant 1 million trees in five years! Today, we’re delighted to say that we’ve planted an incredible 1,000,000 trees, which means we’re right on track to reach our #BecomeOneOfTheMillion campaign goal. We couldn’t have achieved this without the hard work of our tree planting partners: WeForest, Eden Projects and The Arbor Day Foundation, but perhaps, most importantly, we wouldn’t have risen to this challenge without the support from you, the Tentsile Tribe! So, from the bottom of our hearts thank you!
