"I was born in Auburn, California and I and my two brothers and two sisters are 5th generation Placer County residents. In fact, my Fowler genealogy dates back to the California Gold Rush, the Massachusetts Puritans and back to Marlborough, England.
I went to schools in Lincoln and college at California Polytechnic and earned a degree in Ornamental Horticulture. I met my wife of 50 “deliriously happy” years (her words) at Cal Poly and we have a daughter and son who also graduated from Cal Poly. We have 5 grandchildren.
After Cal Poly I returned home to continue working with my grandfather and father in the nursery founded in 1912. The nursery grows fruit and nut trees for commercial orchardists throughout the western states, and have shipped trees to every continent except Antarctica. My sister and her family still operate the Fowler Ranch Marker and soon- to -open Brewery.
