AB Cats Inc. is a volunteer organization that works to reduce the Village’s free-roaming cat population through our humane Trap-Neuter-Return Program. Our program has been nationally recognized as one of the outstanding programs in the county for its success. Please notify the Village office if you see kittens or know of any free-roaming cats that require spay/neuter. Feral cats that have been fixed have their left ear tipped. All cats are returned to where they were trapped after they are spayed/neutered.
AB Cats volunteers are working hard to keep the population under control. If you see feral cats that are not left ear tipped, please call the Village Office and they will contact us.
Fundraising for AB Cats goes on 12 months a year. Please help by:
- Volunteering your time

The Village Garden is a demonstration/learning community garden where residents of all ages and abilities are invited to volunteer, share skills and grow organic, pesticide-free herbs, vegetables, and flowering plants.
The garden donates most of its harvested crops to local soup kitchens and food pantries, with the remaining vegetables used for garden classes and special events. Any small surplus beyond those purposes gets shared among the volunteers.
It’s a year-round endeavor. We start all the vegetables, herbs, and flowers from seeds in the winter through early spring under grow lights in Village Hall. As soon as our growing season ends in November, we begin preparations for the next one.
Feel free to stop by during gardening season to volunteer or just visit. We love to show you what’s growing and give you a fresh bouquet of organic herbs.
To learn more about the garden, special events, volunteer, or make a donation visit:
