Ejella Gardner lives in the Tom Brown Village apartments in east Birmingham. She says it is possible to get to healthy food, but it takes a lot of effort, especially for someone who’s older and is trying to avoid potential exposure to COVID-19.

“A lot of places you go, they don’t wear masks; they cough and don’t cover their mouth, so I try to stay in as much as I can,” she said.

Getting to healthy food was a little easier for Gardner and her neighbors Friday as an outdoor pop-up grocery store was set up between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. in the heart of Tom Brown Village.
