About the Instructor

Hello, I’m Alma.

I’m a first generation immigrant from the Philippines currently living on occupied lands of the Duwamish Tribe and Coast Salish people, also called Seattle. I identify as Filipino-American and I use she/her pronouns.

I love being close to nature and creating art.

As a child growing up on the island of Oahu, I often came home (my mom says) from trips to the beach or woods with my pockets bulging with rocks, sticks, shells, and other natural items. I learned how to find edible fruits in the woods and edible seaweeds on the beach. My father grew both an edible and ornamental garden as I do today. As an elementary school teacher, I conducted classes in the school garden, took my students on walks in the woods and on the beach, taught them to keep a nature journal, and painted along-side my students during art class. As a now 20+ resident of the Pacific Northwest, I spend much of my time on our beaches and in the woods. I nature journal in the field and bring my experiences home as inspiration into my art.

Meh..., I'll stick to fave pig ear chews
Only 4 for $6, idk these don't last long. I wanted to try them because my dogs love being spoiled but I think I'll stick to pig ears at a discount from Petco. They are very hard, some chews crumble or soften as the dogs knaw at them during the day. However these chews didn't last longer than 10 minutes compared to actual no rawhide alternatives I have used. These didn't do that. No upset stomach so that's a plus. The smell was similar to pig ears also, texture was different. No slimy residue w/ it unlike with the regular 100% pig ears. Helped with plague build up but there is still plague on insicor tooth. Probably won't buy again, meh.

bag came ripped
bag came ripped so the chewy pig ears were not chewy they were hard, I didnt even give them to my dog. The worst part is they are not returnable or refundable - what a waste of money So not acceptable.
