Delivering neighborhood connections to your mailbox every month.
Welcome! Let’s get to know our neighbors.
We know genuine connections with neighbors next door and business owners down the street make for a more meaningful experience. And we believe getting to know people in our community should be simple. That’s why Stroll meets you where you’re at – your mailbox.
We are grateful to serve this amazing community.
Every month, we share stories from and about different residents within our neighborhood.

Meet Your Publisher

Jennifer Abbatacola
Hi. I’m Jennifer. As a publisher focused on hyper-local marketing to affluent homeowners, the work blends a passion for small businesses with a commitment to neighborhood connections. Living in a farm town west of the Fox River Valley brings a special appreciation for Midwest small town culture and values. Born and raised in Chicago, the Fox River Valley became home, where my family was raised, and my efforts are dedicated to helping local business owners' grow their own American Dream. Small Business America is the backbone of our communities, and my mission is to create connections that unite people and businesses in fruitful ways. Through publishing, event organization, and collaboration with local entrepreneurs, I approach every relationship with authenticity and a genuine desire to see everyone win.
