Why would you want a gazebo when you could have a number of tree pods in your own back yard? A Canadian company in BC has developed ‘Free Spirit Spheres’ which let you live your dream of living hanging out in a pod house. The company markets them as being cool for relaxation, meditation, photography, and bird watching. “Spheres can be hung from the trees as shown or from any other solid objects like buildings or rock faces. A web of rope is connected to any strong points available. This replaces the foundation of a conventional building. A suspended tree house uses the forest for its foundation. The occupants have a vested interest in the health of the grove. The supporting web also mirrors our connectedness to our surroundings. Each sphere has four attachments on top and another four anchor points on the bottom. Each attachment is strong enough to carry the entire sphere and contents.” (Free Spirit Spheres) See less

Have you ever heard of a Mason Bee? I hadn't, but they are definitely great bees to have around your garden. Unlike most bees, the Mason Bee is a peaceful non-stinging bee that is also a legendary pollinator. These cool bees each visit and pollinate nearly 100 blooms each day, so it would be wise to give them a good home close by with the Mason Bee House ($15). Simply, hang this natural bamboo bee house in a tree or on a wall where it can get plenty of morning sun. The female mason bees will soon fill each of the bamboo tubes with their eggs, nectar and pollen and in return you will have immensely boosted your garden's productivity. Plus, now you can tell everyone you are a beekeeper too. See less

At The Colorado Yurt Company, we have a family of employees who take great pride and care to craft every yurt, tipi and canvas wall tent that leaves our shop. Our story began back in 1976 when owners Dan and Emma Kigar made their first tipi and called it home. They set their tipi on a mountainside and watched the stars pass and the seasons change. It wasn't long before some of their friends wanted the same experience and the adventure called Earthworks Tipis began. Living at 9,000 feet in harsh Colorado winters in a tipi gave them the first hand experience they needed to design and manufacture fabric structures that withstand extreme climate conditions while leaving a light footprint environmentally! Today, the enterprise has evolved into The Colorado Yurt Company still making quality tipis but also adding Mongolian style modern yurts and rugged canvas wall tents to the mix. The tiny workshop is now a small campus of production facilities and display yurts, tipis and tents located at... See less
