Sending Flowers to Greenbrier, AR

The city is in Faulkner County and has a population of more than 5,000 residents. Before the Europeans settled in the area, native tribes such as the Quapaw, Native Americans, and the Cherokee lived there. The city developed from a small brothel along the Butterfield Stagecoach route into a city. The city got its name from the greenbrier vines that grew along the creek in the town.

The community was finally incorporated as a town in 1880 with an initial population of 300 residents. The town had different general stores, mills, cotton gins, churches, and schools. However, in 1930 the city was plagued with droughts, floods, and the Great Depression. That period led to a loss of jobs and business closures, resulting in a high unemployment rate. Still, the New Deal in 1935 brought in a new era in the town's history by providing jobs and business opportunities.
