Story
Welp! We had other plans for a list of repairs needed at Black Market. One of those was the roof. We also needed our refrigerators repaired and replaced. Now: we need a whole new wall!
On the night of December 22, a car slid off the road into the side of our grocery. As we arrived to check everything out, the police had already left and there was a gaping hole in the middle of our beautiful community mural.
We are devastated but extremely grateful that no one was seriously injured (we will keep folks updated if we hear more). We have supported the community in important ways this year, and we will need to fundraise a significant amount for the repairs to continue our work in the community. .
We will update this fundraiser as we gather more information. Please contact Missy or Jasmine if you would like to assist with support.
We wanted to compliment our highest seller, West End Coffee. If you'd like to check out our work, linktr.ee/blackmarketky
We are in partnership with Black Lives Matter Louisville.

March 31, 2023 It's Been A Lot
We're going to get this updated and open again. We've had someone break into the store twice and burndown our greenhouse. It's frustrating and sad that folks don't want to support what can help them. We won't let this stop us. Our next update will be what this fundraiser is specifically going towards.

View From Inside
We were able to go inside today to inspect the damage. It hurt our hearts to see the store in such disarray.
