Today is the yearly giveaway from Lutey’s Flower shop here in Marquette. Much like a lot of plants, flowers help promote dopamine in our brains. Flowers were a signal to our hunter-gatherer ancestors that food was on its way and still trigger happy emotions today.

Lutey’s Flower Shop in Marquette is giving away hundreds of roses to the community to brighten people’s day. Much like a lot of plants, flowers help promote dopamine in our brains. The society of American florists says there are a lot of positive emotional benefits that come from flowers.
Flowers were also handed out at the crib and at the T-M Fitness club. At the end of the giveaway, recipients are encouraged to spread awareness of the happiness by tagging them in social posts with the hashtag “Petal it forward”
