At MyTipi, we prioritise collaboration with local small businesses, we consciously choose small family-run companies located in the South West where possible when sourcing our tipi materials and accessories. This approach not only supports our community but also significantly reduces road miles, aligning with our eco-friendly philosophy.

Our tipis are loved for their elegance and resilience, proudly supported by robust tipi poles. These aren't just any pieces of wood; they tell a story of sustainability and care.

Sourced from local, managed sustainable woodlands, each pole reflects our dedication to supporting and preserving the environment that surrounds us, an environment that feels less like a resource and more like a neighbour.
