Paloma Pottery Salmon Platter

Paloma Pottery offers a variety of traditional ceramic plates and platters that are oven, microwave and dishwasher safe. Please note that Paloma Pottery dinnerware with recycled glass rims are not made to use in the oven. They are more delicate and can not withstand the same stress as the traditional wares.

When cooking with ceramics, you must always start with a COLD oven.  Ceramics can not endure the stress of immediate heat and must be warmed up with the oven.  This also means that no direct flames may be used when cooking with ceramics. Start with a cold oven and then use as you would any other vessel for cooking.

Paloma Pottery’s Salmon Platter shown above is a perfect piece to use for cooking. Need something larger? Custom dinnerware available upon request.

What is National Wildlife Week?
Taken from the National Wildlife Federation Website:

Since 1938, National Wildlife Week has been essential to wildlife conservation, bringing awareness about the issue to people of all ages. Observing National Wildlife Week is a time to honor wildlife, bring communities together through service, ignite the minds of children and adults, and instill an absolute love of nature.

Why Celebrate National Wildlife Week?

An easy way to participate in this week-long event is by making time for outdoor play and interaction with the natural world. Research shows that a daily Green Hour® improves one’s physical, mental and emotional well-being. This is especially important for children who typically spend hours in front of electronic media. Additionally, families and communities connected to nature raise healthier kids and inspire a life-long appreciation of wildlife and the environment.

How Do I Get Started?

The National Wildlife Week website offers resources for kids, teens, parents, and educators to make spending time outdoors easier than ever. Download free activities and games, Wildlife Watch lists of local plants and animals, environmental service project ideas, and fact sheets about the benefits of playing outside.

National Wildlife Federation welcomes you to join us during this annual celebration.
