Thanks Mary. Glad you are inspired. We have actually improved the design. We plan to have an updated video in late April, early May. One thing we learned was that the strings should be strung vertical rather than horizontal. We tie a thicker rope around the perimeter of the bottom about 2 inches from the ground. This gives us an anchor to tie the vertical strings running up to the top ropes that hold the sticks together where they cross. Vertical strings make the climbing much easier for the beans (or peas). Be sure, too, not to run the bottom rope or vertical strings in the space for your door. Good luck. It's a great project, hope you have fun with it.

Thank you for doing this demonstration. It was helpful. I think one step / one piece of information was left out which is when you tied together the first three poles on the ground, there was no mention of leaving any rope attached so when you stand it up and begin to add the other poles you can tie them all together with that rope. It would be very helpful if you mentioned to leave rope attached to the first three poles and then list the length necessary or at least an estimated length. I love how you have the whole family engaged in this. Seems like you have a wonderful family.

Do you take the piles down for the winter?
@GardensThatMatter

Not neccesarily for winter. But we do like to rotate beans so we often move our tipi location (usually in spring), or grow something else on it and grow beans somewhere else. And we only get about 2-3 seasons with poles before they get dried, brittle and/or break. Sometimes less when the boys try to climb them. In fact, ours is down as of September. Several poles were broken and the rope holding them together at the top was ragged and frayed. Taking down the poles for winter and storing them somewhere dry and out of the sun may extend their life. But leaving them up provides habitat for insects and birds. That's why we leave ours up in winter, plus we have access to lots of material for new tipis. There was an old bird's nest at the top of ours when we took it down. We will likely build a new one in the spring, so maybe we will do an updated video with some new things we've learned. Thanks for the question.

Hello, how long did this Teepee last? Was it only for one season or sturdy enough to use it year over year? We live in zone 6 in the high desert mountains and get a lot of snow in the winter and heat in the summer.

We don't, and it won't last but a few seasons. We build a new one very 3-4 years, or when needed. You could take it down, though, if you have a good place to store the sticks. We're in USDA Zone 7b.

How long was the rope you used? I know you mentioned 6' for the clove hitch knots. How much longer was the rest of the rope for wrapping?
@GardensThatMatter

Hi Eric. We started with a 50' length of rope, used what we needed to wrap, and then cut off the excess. In our updated version of the tipi, which we just built and filmed, but haven't edited and published yet, we used the remainder of the rope at the bottom of the tipi. We ran the rope around the tipi horizontally about 2 inches from the ground starting from the door opening left pole all the way around to the door right pole (leaving door opening) , and then tied vertical string from the bottom rope to the top rope (wrapped) to create vertical climbing apparatus for the beans. We realized after the first tipi (the video you watched), the beans struggled to grab hold of the horizontal strings so we experimented with running vertical strings (2 strings in between each set of pole) from close to ground to top and it works much better and gives the beans (or any other climbing plant, ie peas, malabar spinach) more to hold on to as it makes its way up. They will spread out across horizontal strings too, but they have trouble making the trip up once they attach to a horizontal string. Does that make sense? I can't upload a picture in these comments to show you but here's a link to the pic I posted on instagram to show you how we did the verticals. instagram.com/p/B-7_MzNhNdT/ Hope this helps.
