Hi, from rural New York State.

[Martha Ferris]

I am trying to expand my social connections. Soon to be 65. Backgound is in health care which abruptly ended seven years ago. I am a human, animal and environmental rights activist. I have a one acre piece of land that I have developed into a certified wildlife habitat. I have four special needs rescue animals that I care for as well as keeping 2 miles of highway around my home clear of trash. I have spent my life trying to make a difference. I have a great many interests but am limited in my travel and contact with others due to a health condition which left me isolated even before COVID. When the virus hit life did not change much for me except for having to wear a mask. I am looking forward to getting to know the members here and hopefully have some great conversations.

Hi Martha

It's so very nice to met someone who cares as much as you do. I'm especially thrilled that you rescued special needs dogs and cats!
Hope you'll enjoy yourself here.

Hello, and Welcome to the forum from Toronto, Martha

Welcome, Martha!
Thanks for that introduction for us. I can picture all the wild species who appreciate and thrive, some so tiny that humans do not see them,
in the area you have taken care of, for them.

Hi Martha


Rural NY is so beautiful. I enjoyed a brief trip to Delaware County many moons ago. Gosh, what a great place to live. If possible, please post pics of your area so that folks can see some beautiful scenery.
