The tent story
Storm Burglind raged in January and unfortunately brought down Farmer Fritz's two tepees, which were already showing their age. Luckily the insurance covered the damage and so we were allowed to get two new tipis with a diameter of 7m out of ours Tent fabric «Premium» deliver.
For many years, farmer Fritz Tipis offered the tipis for overnight stays or events. He also owned PVC teepees, which last forever but never come close to natural materials in terms of atmosphere and climate. Tent fabrics made from natural materials are lighter, brighter and offer a pleasant climate even in summer.
Unfortunately, the old poles, which Fritz had struck out of his own forest at that time, were no longer useful for our tepees. Often the self-made rods are too heavy and too thick at the top. You can find out here how you can make poles yourself and what you need to pay attention to.
The construction of the two tepees took place in a slightly elevated location, a little away from the farm with a magnificent view of the valley. After a hot day and hard work with great support, Fritz and his wife Janine brought us a well-brewed beer from the nearby brewery and together we came up with a successful day and the new tepees. After a beautiful sunset we enjoyed relaxing hours around the campfire and a night under the stars. Many thanks to Fritz and team for the hospitality and the great help. This job will be remembered for a long time.
