2,000 boxes of produce were given to Louisville residents Saturday in the name of Breonna Taylor.

Tamika Palmer, Breonna Taylor’s mother said the service reflects who her daughter was.

“This is the type of stuff she lived for,” Palmer expressed. “To help anybody, so to do this in her honor, it just shows her character.”

The free farmers’ market was held in the Louisville Urban League’s parking lot. People were able to pick up produce boxes on a first-come, first-serve basis. Organizations like Until Freedom led the day.

“We’re also going door to door, we found some seniors who are immobile, we took boxes to them to drop it off,” Tamika Mallory, the Co-founder of Until Freedom explained. The group also said they visited the family of Trinity Randolph, the 3-year-old girl who was shot and killed Friday afternoon.
