Environmental Efforts

The yurts, tipis and tents that we make use up far fewer natural resources than a traditional stick built structure. They also leave a very light footprint on the earth so you can take "leave no trace camping" one step further to "leave no trace living." The Colorado Yurt Company is comitted to environmentally friendly practices during the manufacturing process as well.

• Passive solar and natural lighting in our primary production area.
• Photovoltaic power in our display yurt.
• Biodiesel fuel powers our trucks.
• A hybrid vehicle gets us around town.
• Rigorous recycling and reusing program.
• Future environmental improvements include purchasing wind generated electricity and offering recyled denim insulation to our yurt customers.
