Alma Oasis was created in 2023, brought to life from the shared vision of two individuals captivated by the beauty and mystery of daily life but also by the climate problems and unmet solutions in our society. Our vision is to inspire the environmentally curious and encourage change in individual behaviors to have a positive impact on the earth, however large or small. ‘Alma’ means the soul, reflecting the essence of our being and ‘Oasis’ signifies a flourishing ecosystem in an otherwise arid world. Together, Alma Oasis represents the harmonious coexistence of the human spirit and nature, a place where individuals learn to thrive on a constantly evolving planet.
Informative and educational
Once I finished the course, I understood, possibly disagree with certain quasi-political influences, I had many things to back me up, my philosophy was "us against them". Now I can see clearly, I can definetly see that community would be essential in not only surviving, but thriving. I was angry at times, being a third generation oilpatch professional. There are also, though, many inaccuracies, or otherwise bold, inaccurate statements, especially about how agriculture uses so much fuel. We are growing food for the world. our tractor gets better fuel economy than my car. And a baler usually has no motor on its own. It is being powered by the same motor propelling the tractor, using a PTO shaft to transfer energy. I just found the whole thing very one-sided politically and theoretically. Otherwise, I definetly gleaned information from this and i did learn many things. the cob house intrigues me. I am already planning my herb spiral for the spring and will be looking for heirloom varieties of my garden seed this year.
Enjoying
Great content, easy to navigate & complete. Would highly recommend.
This sounds like an AI voice which makes it difficult to understand the content at times. Like the tone/emphasis is off, words are mispronounced like mantra.
great
good
I enjoyed the course. It was very informative and has encouraged me to pursue this career path.
Lots of relevant information and content.
Great and Wonderful Experience
I have extensive knowledge of wilderness survival in my own area, however, learning about the Arctic and Jungle people gave me the interest to pursue learning more about the different climates and areas unknown to me. Honestly, the first module I found uninteresting and struggled to pay attention to it as it seemed frivolous and did not encourage me to continue. I powered through, though, and was much relieved to find more tangible content from there on out. on the whole it was very informative and I loved doing the practical assignments. I have never made char cloth or used a bowdrill or friction method before!
a very thorough approach of sylvotherapy including scientific and cultural info. Could be more science base for more credibility of the practice. Forest profiles and cultures vary around the globe so it would be interesting to get module divided in different zones
A very interesting and valuble course.
Fantastic knowledge. I enjoyed every module, while Upstate in the woods.
I am almost halfway through the program and I have already learned so much and really enjoy it
I truly enjoyed this course. It challenged me to think, and I learned a ton. It is a great complement to the work I do as an outdoor guide as well!
