Our Owners
Laura & Jason Fulmer are the owners of Fire Tower Flowers.
Laura was born and raised in the town of Burnt Hills, in upstate New York. She moved to South Carolina in 2004 to attend Clemson University, where she completed her Bachelors and Masters of Science in Civil Engineering. Laura is an engineer at the South Carolina Department of Transportation, focusing on maintenance of our roadway network, with a passion for flowers and butterflies.
Jason was born and raised in Prosperity, South Carolina, at a home which has been in the family for generations. He grew up with a love for the outdoors, being involved in farming from a young age. Jason attended Clemson University, completing his Bachelors of Science in Civil Engineering. He is a construction management engineer for the South Carolina Department of Transportation, with a passion for farming.
Laura & Jason met at Clemson University in a Geotechnical (Soils) Engineering course. They are both roadway engineers, dog owners, travel enthusiasts, and Clemson Tiger fans, and now flower farmers, but prefer 'floral engineers'. They have a passion for the outdoors, and can often be found exploring America's National Parks when away from the farm. They got married in June of 2023, after a flower filled engagement, then grew many of their own flowers for the wedding.
Our Pups
Abbie & Banjo are the official farm pups.
Abbie was a Boykin Spaniel mix and was adopted by Laura in 2012 from the Greenville Humane Society. She was just 7 months old, and already a well behaved puppy. She grew to be am amazing dog, and was a certified Therapy Dog for 9 years. Abbie passed away in 2024 and watches over the farm from her sunny spot on the hill.
Banjo is a Brittany Spaniel and was adopted by Jason in 2011, at just 8 weeks old. Banjo is spunky and full of energy, and time does not seem to slow that down at all. He may be at the farm often, but he is likely running full speed through the woods and creek, only to stop by and make sure you are still where he left you.
Our Farm
Fire Tower Farm has been a family property for as long as anyone can remember, rumoring to have been deeded to them from the Queen of England. The land has been used for cotton, dairy cows, beef cows and lumber.
Fire Tower Flowers has focused plots across the farm property, as well as wildflower areas.
Our Roots
Laura's love for flowers sprouted with her first home. She never had much of an indoor green thumb, but outdoors, she couldn't grow enough. Complete with an engineers OCD for details and planning, her garden beds became meticulously arranged and filled to capacity. As the plants grew in size, they needed to be split for proper health. Laura sold these extra plants, simply using Facebook Marketplace. The idea for a larger scale production was planted. Lilies & daylilies were her 'bread and butter,' having the most experience with these hardy plants. Laura began to research and plant more varieties of lilies, then other bulbs, perennials, and annuals. Every nook and cranny of her small residential home was filled with blooms, and she started sharing the flowers as cut flowers.
Jason suggested that she move the flower operations to the farm where she could have the room to grow, planting as many flowers as her heart could desire, and budget could afford. Jason's background in farming and all around handy-man skills began planning the logistics of an operational flower farm. The first step was a bulldozer to clear the land, followed by creating the beds and irrigation.
The farm is always under construction and managed by Jason. Laura handles specific variety selection, seeding, growing planning and scheduling, marketing, advertising and sales. The 2022 season was our first farm trial, and we are happy with the success. We are adding inventory, making modifications, and preparing for larger dreams and a bigger impact.
