Our Core Volunteers
Greg and Barbara Bertling
Greg and Barbara founded Fallston Animal Rescue Movement (FARM) in 2000. Their goal was to save one animal at a time, but that quickly changed when they realized how many animals needed their help. Within 2 years they had both quit their day jobs and opened the Feed Plus store, which provides quality pet food and supplies, and houses FARM’s adoption events each weekend.
Tami
Tami is our longest standing volunteer and has been volunteering with FARM since 2008. She is a generous soul and will help any human or animal in need. She can’t resist a special needs dog.
Cleo
Cleo is vital component of our rescue venture. She is the first on site every day. She donates her time to feed the fur babies and clean the facility multiple times per day. Without her selfless contribution, we would be at a huge loss.
Jim
Jim has been with FARM since 2008. He is responsible for all the great photos and for managing our Facebook page.
Sue
Sue is our cat whisperer. When Sue appears, all cats come out of hiding in anticipation of their one on one time. She is a professional Graphic Designer and lends her talents to some of our marketing materials.
Candy
Candy started volunteering in 2009 after she adopted a dog from FARM. She realized that fostering dogs was a great way to help save additional lives. Her kryptonite are tiny, biting chihuahuas.
JT
JT started volunteering after adopting his beloved beagle from FARM in 2010. He takes care of most of our transports and is an amazing dog walker.
Danielle
Danielle is highly involved in the rescue. As the on-staff groomer, she spends a lot of time with the dogs and is often the go-to reference about their temperment and acclamation with the other dogs. You'll most likely see her helping out when you come to visit your new furever friend.
