MAYFIELD, Ky. – A restaurant owner parked her food truck in the middle of tornado wreckage to hand out free hot meals to first responders, victims and anyone else in need in Mayfield, Kentucky.
"What we're doing is a really small part – I don't feel like we're doing near as much as some of these men and women that are in the trenches and physically out there finding people, helping people relocate," Infinity Farms owner Amber Hayes told Fox News.
